Notes to SEFA

The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the “Schedule”) includes the federal grant activity of New York City Gay and Lesbian Anti-Violence Project, Inc. (the “Agency”) under programs of the federal government for the year ended June 30, 2025. The information on this Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (“Uniform Guidance”). Because the Schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the Agency, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets or cash flows of the Agency.
Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the accrual basis of accounting. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement.
The Agency elected not to use the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance.
The Agency did not make any payments to subrecipients.

Finding Details

Finding 2025-001 Reporting Assistance Listing No. 16.588 Violence Against Women Formula Grants U.S. Department of Justice, passed through the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services, Contract No. C00282GG Criteria: 2 CFR § 200.348 requires that the recipient or subrecipient must submit financial and programmatic reports as required by the federal award. Condition and Context: During the audit, the auditor requested the programmatic report for calendar year 2025 and determined that it was not submitted by the required due date of February 27, 2026. The 2025 report was submitted by the Agency on March 30, 2026. Cause: Internal control over the timely submission of programming reports was not designed properly or operating effectively. Effect: The 2025 report was not submitted on time as required by the federal grant. Identification as a repeat finding: No. Questioned costs: None. Recommendation: We recommend that the Agency revisit its policies to provide for the timely submission of programming reports and ensure compliance with the reporting requirements of its federal awards. View of responsible officials: During Fiscal Year 2026, AVP has undertaken two major projects to ensure grant compliance and on-time submission of federal funding reports: updating grant management financial record-keeping with the assistance of nonprofit finance firm Your Part Time Controller and transition to a new, custom database that will improve workflow and accountability for grant reporting. As of April 2026, these projects are still in progress, and the audit identified a grant with internal controls that were not operating properly, with a missed deadline in February 2026. The Agency expects our internal controls projects to be completed and fully operational by the end of the current fiscal year on June 30, 2026.
