Since completion of the fiscal year ended 9/30/2022, the Organization has added a Director of Grants Management, two grant billers and a purchasing manager to help ensure policies and procedures are being followed. In response to this finding, the CFO and Director of Grants Management have instituted multiple internal processes to confirm administrative fees do not exceed 10% of grant award. The grant biller will prepare a monthly reimbursement schedule in Excel which shows the budgeted amount for each category. The Director of Grants Management reviews and approves this schedule to ensure it meets the grant requirements. Each individual monthly reimbursement form is approved and signed by the Director of Grants Management to confirm accuracy. Then the reimbursement form submitted is entered in a master spreadsheet "Projects by Line Item" which shows original budget, monthly amounts billed for each budget line item, and remaining balance for each item. This is reviewed each month to ensure no amounts, including the administrative costs exceed approved amounts. Anticipated Completion Date: 9/30/2023 Responsible Contact Person: Chris White, CFO

As of 2023 we will be adding the following policy to the fiscal manual and to the operations manual to read as follows: All monthly program reports shall be completed by the coordinator and sent to the Deputy Director for approval, once approved they will be sent to the Fiscal Coordinator. The Fiscal Coordinator will then complete the billing amount and fiscal narrative then the report will be reviewed by the Deputy Director. Once approved the report will be presented to the Executive Director for final review, approval and signature and date placed on each report before it is sent to the funder. All program coordinators will complete a JFT outcomes report that is placed in an electronic reporting system and these reports will be reviewed quarterly by the Deputy Director. The Deputy Director does data analysis and these reports are placed in narrative form by the Deputy Director quarterly and the year-end report. These are shared with the funders according to the reporting requirements in the grant. All reports must be to funders by the 15th of the following month, unless otherwise stated in funder contract. The following policy will also be added to the fiscal manual: All budget modifications will be written up on the budget modification form and sent to the funder electronically once approved the form will be notated and include the funders signature, written on the form verbal communication from the funder, or a copy of the email with funder approval.

We are in receipt of the findings required to be reported by the single audit for COVID19 Claims Reimbursement for the Uninsured Program and the COVID19 Coverage Assistance Fund specifically, regarding discrepancies in funding received under a different employer identifier number. Management does not dispute the finding. The District is in it’s second year after going through an asset purchase transaction, whereby the physical assets were retained by the District, but the operations of the hospital were sold. As the District moves forward, we will work to develop policies and procedures over financial reporting to ensure they only request reimbursement for federal grants for programs with the correct employer identification number. Lynn Lindsey, Chief Financial Officer, will be responsible to ensure that this is accomplished and will begin to implement new procedures. The corrective action plan will be implemented by September 30, 2024.

Public Health’s Office of Aids (OA) agrees with the finding and recommendation. OA developed and implemented additional internal quality assurance (QA) processes in April of 2022 to ensure that secondary reviews of AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) applications are consistently enforcing the existing guidelines, including acceptable supporting documentation and accurate eligibility requirements. Prior to this audit period, and through December 2021, ADAP had issued multiple policy memos to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, which enabled staff and enrollment workers to defer documentation collection, when necessary, to remain flexible and ensure clients impacted by the pandemic, and associated site closures, did not lose eligibility and access to life-saving medications and comprehensive healthcare. These flexibilities in our guidelines were implemented based on guidance received from our federal funder, the Health Resources and Services Administration, which encouraged ADAP to reassess its organization's eligibility and recertification policies and procedures, and remove any barriers that may impede social distancing, or other public health strategies, necessary to minimize COVID-19 transmission. This documentation deferral was terminated on December 31, 2021, and since January 1, 2022, full documentation and eligibility requirements have been enforced. This, combined with ongoing QA efforts, will help mitigate future findings in ADAP applications. Estimated Implementation Date: Implemented as of April 2022 Contact: Joseph Lagrama, Branch Chief AIDS Drug Assistance Program Branch California Department of Public Health

Audit Finding Reference: 2022-12 Management’s View and Planned Corrective Action A procedure is currently in place and being followed. In 2021-2022 there were new forms sent from the State to do our meal counts, this was the second COVID year and free lunch for all students. In our one room plus a modular school housethat receives vended meals from Lisbon, Landaff, they used both the State form and MealTimes and then sometimes called and made changes at the last minute to the number of servable meals. We believe the glitch was at Landaff in terms of procedure so part of our plan will be to review with the Landaff staff how to correctly enter the information into MealTimes. I spot checked 22-23 and found that our claims are accurate to Meal Times. Name of Contact Person and Completion Date: Name 1 Toni Butterfield Name 2 Anticipated Completion Date – 6/30/2025

Finding 2022-003 Adherence and Application of Financial Policies and Procedures for Vouchering Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Pass-Through Entity: Illinois Department of Human Services Program Name: Social Services Block Grant Assistance Listing #: 93.667 Questioned Costs: None Corrective Action: We agree with the auditor’s comments and actions stated in the recommendation. The Organization is rewriting its accounting policies and procedures to ensure adherence to the proper procedures for vouchering, which will be completed in fiscal year 2024. In August 2022, the building at 4730 N. Sheridan was sold. During the move some documents were misfiled or otherwise missed place. This made it difficult to find vouchers for the audit. The new accounting system allows Alternatives to save a copy of the vouchers and necessary support within the software. The electronic filing of the backup documentation will prevent misplacement of vouchers in the future. Contact Person: Sonya Cook, Finance Director Anticipated Completion Date: December 15, 2023

Audit Finding Reference: 2021-006 Cross Training of Staff and Review of Responsibilities Management’s View and Planned Corrective Action: Management does not agree with this deficiency. We do agree that Management is actively working on some changes as improvements are made each year to improve efficiency. Each position in the Business Office other than HR has been crossed trained with one-to-two other team members. Cross training throughout the business office was implemented in 2016 and has continued to exist. Each position has the ability to have someone step in case of emergency, elongated vacations and when/if someone resigns or is terminated. The positions are not covered in entirety, but the important items that must be dealt with can be and are accomplished. Examples are as such: Accounts Payable is covered by our Special Ed Bookkeeper, and other staff have the ability to review manifest once generated. Payroll has been covered by the Assistant Business Administrator when vacations or vacancies have existed, Grants can be covered by the Business Administrator when vacations or vacancies have existed. The Assistant Business Administrator is covered by the Business Administrator during vacations and vacancies. Each position continues to do their own assigned job duties and takes on the other tasks as necessary. The work may not get completed in the same timely fashion as if the actual staff member holding the position was there because they are also completing their own tasks, but the work does get accomplished. When there are multiple turnovers and/illness occurring at the sometime it makes it challenging even when cross training exists. Every year the Business Administrator reviews workloads and reassesses if changes should occur to help create efficiencies and create equivalent workload between all staff members. While some positions have more deadlines than others it can appear that their plates are larger than others, but frequently tasks are divided out throughout the team to help alleviate this. These discussions are brought forth to COLT, the Senior Leadership team at the SAU, and restructuring is finalized at that time.
