Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11Once the draft Form 990 is forwarded to us by Raffa, P.C., the Administrator reviews it comparing it for accuracy to the recently completed audit and highlights any questions she has for Raffa, P.C.. Once she has discussed her questions with Raffa, P.C. and understands their answers she forwards the Form 990 to the Executive Director, the Finance Committee (the current Treasurer of the Board of Directors and the former Treasurer) and the President for their review. If they have any questions to which the Administrator cannot respond the Legal Clinic contacts Raffa, P.C. for further explanation. The completed Form 990 is provided to the full Board of Directors by email and then filed with the Internal Revenue Service.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cAt the Legal Clinic's annual meeting, each Board Member signs the Conflict of Interest Policy Statement. We follow-up with any Board Member who is not at the meeting to have them sign the Statement. In addition, the conflict of interest policy specifies that the Board Members "understand that if at any time during which I serve as a Director, Officer or Key Employee of the corporation, any of the foregoing representations in this Statement are no longer accurate, I will within 30 days of the event creating the inaccuracy, file with the Corporation a new, accurate and updated Statement."
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15The Legal Clinic does not have any highly compensated employees or key employees. The Executive Director's compensation is considered along with the rest of the employees' compensation. If increases are given, they are generally a 3% COLA given in July to the entire staff. This action is budgeted for in the annual budget which is approved by the Board of Directors when they approve the budget at their annual meeting. The approval of the annual budget is documented in the Board of Directors minutes. Although it is budgeted, it is done so with the caveat that it will again be reviewed and re-approved by the Finance Committee prior to the July payroll after the Board of Directors has considered the current financial position of the Legal Clinic. In 2011 substantive raises (beyond a 3% COLA) were given to the Legal Clinic employees, including the Executive Director, to compensate the employees for the lack of raises in 2009 and 2010. With approval from the Board of Directors, salaries were increased so that they would reflect a 3% COLA in 2009, 2010 and 2011.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19The Legal Clinic's governing documents, audited financial statements and federal Form 990 are available upon request.
