Foundational Documents

Governance and Board

Board Governance Policy
The Board acts collectively through mission fidelity, institutional independence, documented decisions, financial stewardship, ethical accountability, risk oversight, and continuity. During Founder-led governance it exercises meaningful oversight and reserved powers but is not ordinary executive authority; after formal transition it becomes principal institutional governing authority. Board size, terms, appointments, removals, quorum, voting, upward rounding, and fixed-denominator recusal follow the Constitution and Bylaws. Informal direction, engineered vacancies or recusals, committees, and operational access controls may not bypass those documents.
Draft — Under Review
Officer Governance Policy
Core Officers are Chairperson, Vice Chairperson, Treasurer, and Secretary and serve renewable two-year terms. Officers exercise only assigned authority, maintain records, disclose conflicts, report material issues, protect restricted information, and preserve handover and credential continuity. Appointment, removal, vacancy, resignation, acting service, suspension, and review are stage-specific under the Constitution and Bylaws. Officer status does not create Board membership; Officer suspension does not suspend a separate Director seat; and ordinary procedures cannot remove a Founder serving as Chairperson during Founder-led governance.
Draft — Under Review
Committee Governance Policy
No standing committee is mandatory at launch. Founder/Chair may create operational working groups, advisory groups, and temporary implementation teams during Founder-led governance. Formal committees exercising Board-delegated governance authority require Board authorization; after transition the Board creates formal governance committees. Each formal committee requires a written charter, defined membership, scope, reporting, records, limits, and dissolution terms. No committee is a mini-Board or may amend higher documents, appoint or remove Directors, dissolve the PAC, finally approve endorsements, alter Founder protections, or exercise undelegated reserved powers.
