Our Policies

 

Code of Conduct

The Foundation expects its staff and directors to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the highest professional and ethical standards. The Foundation's policies set forth expected standards and the procedures necessary to comply with those standards. The Foundation's Code of Conduct, which emphasizes a number of different policies, is set forth below. No policy can address every conceivable professional or ethical situation.
