Part III not only details Program Services' output with great specificity, but also updates the Form's readers both as to the filer's largest arenas of activities and how conducted activities have changed. And Part VI, the infamous "Governance Part," provides information as to the composition of those "legally in charge," as well as how both the Board of Directors/Trustees and its delegated officials employ policies in favor of maintaining internal controls.
