Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cBoard members and senior staff will annually disclose and promptly update any disclosures previously made via their signed conflict of interest form, which asks Board members and staff to identify any potential conflicts of interest. Board and staff are also required to disclose conflicts as they arise as well as to disclose those situations that are evolving that may result in a conflict of interest. Advance disclosure must occur so that a determination may be made as to the appropriate plan of action to manage the conflict. Staff should disclose to their supervisor or Executive Director and Board members should disclose to the full Board or President of the Board as soon as the person with the conflict is aware of the conflict/potential conflict or appearance of a conflict exists. For each interest disclosed, the full Board, or the Executive Director or the President of the Board, as appropriate, will determine whether the organization should: (a) take no action or (b) disclose the situation more broadly and invite discussion/resolution by the full Board of what action to take, or (c) refrain from taking action and otherwise avoid the conflict. In most cases the broadest disclosure possible is advisable so that decision-makers can make informed decisions that are in the best interests of the organization. The President of the Board/Executive Director will monitor proposed or ongoing transactions of the organization (e.g., contracts with vendors and collaborations with third parties) for conflicts of interest and disclose them to the board and staff, as appropriate, whether discovered before or after the transaction has occurred.
