Board Governance

Based on the provided information, it is difficult to assess how well Babyland Family Services Inc is governed. The lack of information regarding the number of voting members and independent members makes it challenging to determine the level of accountability and transparency within the organization. Additionally, the absence of documented board and committee meetings raises concerns about the organization's decision-making processes and the involvement of key stakeholders. Furthermore, the absence of policies addressing conflicts of interest, whistleblower protection, document retention, and disclosure of leadership and officer salaries indicates a potential lack of governance practices and transparency within the organization. Without these policies in place, there may be a higher risk of unethical behavior or mismanagement. Moreover, the organization's failure to provide copies of the 990 to the board prior to filing suggests a lack of oversight and involvement of board members in financial decision-making and reporting. This could hinder the board's ability to fulfill its fiduciary responsibilities and ensure the organization's financial integrity.
