Form 990, Part III, Line 1 Organization's Mission The mission of the JCRC is to safeguard the rights of Jews here (U.S, Indiana), in Israel, and around the world. We do this by protecting and promoting an American society that is just, democratic, and pluralistic. The JCRC was established in 1942 to live out several Jewish commandments and be the voice of the Jewish community in the community at large (faith, ethic, policy and civic leaders, and the media): to pursue justice, to repair the world, to love your neighbor, to welcome the stranger, to not stand idly by. The efforts of the JCRC reflect the profound Jewish commitment to "tikkun olam", the repair of the world, and "tzedeck tzedeck tirdof." Justice just shall you pursue. Both of these Jewish commandments express the conviction of the organized Jewish community that we must be active in the effort to build a society that is just for all. In order to accomplish its goals, JCRC convenes the "common table" around which representatives from every Jewish agency, synagogue, and organization are welcome and encouraged to sit together to find consensus on issues concerning the Jewish community, and then develop strategies to advance the public affairs goals of the organized Jewish community. The deliberative process of the JCRC allows for open, representative discussion to foster consensus. The JCRC is a constituent agency of the Jewish Federation of Greater Indianapolis. The JCRC in Indianapolis joins with 125 other JCRCs across the country and over a dozen national Jewish organizations to form the Jewish Council for Public Affairs.

Fifty percent (50%) of the members of the Executive Committee will constitute a quorum. The Executive Director shall be an ex-officio member of the Executive Committee for the purposes of establishing a quorum for the Executive Committee, but shall not be entitled to vote as a Director.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b Review of form 990 by governing body Jewish Community Relations Council has appointed the President and Executive Director to review in detail the Form 990. The President then reports to the board a summary of the information in the Form 990. Board members also receive a copy of the reviewed Form 990 via email prior to filing with the IRS. Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c Conflict of interest policy All board members, officers, and key employees are required to disclose any conflicts of interest annually. Questionnaires are distributed to the board when new matters requiring board approval arise and understanding of conflicts are required. The Executive Director and Board President determine whether an actual or potential conflict of interest exists. At each board meeting where action is taken, the Board President reminds the board members that any board member with a conflict of interest must make it noted in the minutes and must abstain from voting on each action item related to their potential or actual conflict of interest. Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a Process to establish compensation of top management official An annual review of salary and benefits is completed by the officers of the board for the Executive Director. Comparability data is used to be sure that compensation is reasonable. The organization reviews and discusses current market data to update the compensation plan. The decisions of the officers are presented to the full board and documented in the minutes and included in the budget review process. The process is performed annually. Form 990, Part VI, Line 19 Required documents available to the public Governing documents and conflict of interest policies are not required disclosures pursuant to Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 6104.
