ExplanationThe Executive Committee reviews, at least every two years, the employment terms and salary requirements based on salary comparison data and contemporaneous documentation of the decision is made by the committee for the President/CEO. The Executive Committee also approves salary requirements of other staff officers and key employees of the organization. The Executive Committee makes recommendations to the full Board related to executive compensation. The compensation philosophy of the board is to pay at market rate for base salary, offer competitive benefits as compared to similar nonprofits, and to reward exemplary performance with bonuses based on the annual performance review. Since 2014, the staff has been reduced by nearly half. To minimize expenses, the President and CEO assumed responsibilities for several positions that were eliminated. In addition to his primary duties, the President and CEO currently serves as Chief Operating Officer, Chief Information Officer, and overseer of the outsourced Chief Financial Officer and in-house finance staff.
