The primary tax positions evaluated are related to the Organization's continued qualification as a tax-exempt Organization and whether there is unrelated business income activities conducted that would be taxable. Management has determined that all income tax positions are more likely than not of being sustained upon potential audit or examination; therefore, no disclosures of uncertain income tax positions are required.
