Form And Line Reference	Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 Procedures for monitoring use of grant funds	FormAndLineReferenceDesc
Explanation	THE ACLU FOUNDATION HAS ESTABLISHED PROCEDURES FOR THE RELEASE OF GRANTS, AS WELL AS FOR MONITORING OF OUTCOMES, TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE GOALS OF A PARTICULAR GRANT AWARD HAVE BEEN MET. WHILE THE PRIMARY GRANTMAKING THE ORGANIZATION DOES IS TO ITS AFFILIATES, THE ORGANIZATION ALSO MAKES GRANTS TO OTHER ORGANIZATIONS WHEN IT DETERMINES THAT DOING SO WILL BE IN THE FURTHERANCE OF ITS MISSION. GRANT AWARDS ARE CONFIRMED IN WRITING AND SUPPORTED BY A WRITTEN AGREEMENT THAT SPECIFIES THE PURPOSE OF THE GRANT, THE SPECIFIC OUTCOMES TO BE ACHIEVED, AND, IF APPLICABLE, THE INDICATORS THAT THE PARTIES AGREE WILL BE USED TO MEASURE PROGRESS TOWARDS AGREED UPON GOALS. WRITTEN AGREEMENTS DETAIL THE SPECIFIC ACTIVITIES FOR WHICH FUNDING IS TO BE PROVIDED AND DOCUMENT THE COMMITMENT TO USING THE FUNDS PROVIDED TO PURSUE SPECIFIC STRATEGIES IN ADDRESSING PROGRAM GOALS AND TARGET OUTCOMES. AFFILIATES AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS WHO RECEIVE GRANT AWARDS MAY BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE REPORTS, AND THESE REPORTS MAY BE USED TO DETERMINE WHETHER ADDITIONAL FUNDING MAY BE REQUIRED AND/OR TO ENHANCE FUTURE GRANT PROGRAMS. DURING THE FISCAL YEAR, THE ACLU FOUNDATION ASSISTED STUDENTS VIA SCHOLARSHIPS WHICH WERE PAID DIRECTLY TO THE RESPECTIVE UNIVERSITIES.	ExplanationTxt
