Corrective Action Plans

a. Program Name: Administration for Children and Families Early Head Start Program: CFDA 93.600; VA Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem Program: CFDA 64.024 b. Criteria: Failure to comply with the grant agreement?s terms and applicable regulations: The Corporation did not comply with grant compliance requirements such as timeliness of submitting reports to funding agencies and in other matters noted in licensing reviews. c. Condition: The Corporation has inconsistent performance on the submission of periodic grant reports in a timely matter. This submission pattern conflicts with grant timelines outlined in the Notice of Awards. Specifically, it was noted for two of Corporation?s major programs, Early Head Start and VA Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem Program, that both had reports submitted outside of defined due dates. Early Head Start experienced 5 out of the 8 reports delayed and VA Grant Per Diem experienced 1 out of 2 reports delayed. The delayed reporting if uncorrected, might result in delays in the review and approval process on claim reimbursement and ability to make informed decisions about the future requirements on grant funding. Additionally, during our audit, JGD reviewed the results of all licensing reviews and noted two compliance deficiencies were indicated in the reporting period. These two citations are included for informational purposes: ? September 9, 2021 - Personnel File Review: Licensed childcare center located at 720 E. Street San Bernardino CA, which provides care and services to children 0-5 years of age. The annual licensing review resulted in two findings in personnel record documentation. o One employee file (center coordinator) did not have evidence of current CRP/First Aid training. Evidence of compliance was provided on September 15, 2021 and this deficiency was cleared. o One employee file (interim EHS Director) did not submit completed designated administrator packet for licensing within the ten-day window. The packet was submitted on September 15, 2021 and this deficiency was cleared. ? March 16, 2022 - Self-reported Incident: Licensed childcare center located at 1950 Imperial Ave, El Centro CA, which provides care and services to children 0-5 years of age. The Corporation self-reported an incident involving a child left sleeping and unattended for ten minutes in a classroom, on March 16, 2022. The Community Care Licensing investigated the self-report on June 23, 2022. Community Care Licensing determined the incident to be a deficiency for insufficient supervision ratios. The Corporation?s internal investigation identified the issue and took measures to remedy the deficiency prior to this licensing investigation and subsequent citation. Thus reducing the likelihood of recurrence and prioritizing the safety of children in the Corporation?s care. d. Response: The Corporation recognizes the importance of timely reporting as specified by the funding guidelines. The Corporation has designed and implemented policies and practices to support timely reporting to funding agencies. The Corporation is committed to submitting reports timely and will employ the necessary oversight to ensure this finding is resolved. Additionally, the Corporation continues to strive for excellence in service delivery and will continue to monitor and address any area of non-compliance both in our documentation and our practices. As noted in the licensing reports the areas of non-compliance were addressed and corrected immediately.

THE UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA AT BIRMINGHAM RESPONSE TO THE UNIFORM GUIDANCE AUDIT The following is the University of Alabama at Birmingham?s Response to the audit of Federal programs in accordance with the Uniform Guidance for the year ending September 30, 2022. Finding 2022-001- Return of Interest Earned on Advance Payments Program: Research and Development Cluster Awards: Beta Blockers for the Prevention of Acute Exacerbations of COPD ? 12.420 Management understands the requirement to remit interest earned on advance payments in excess of $500 annually to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Advance payment on awards are uncommon at our institution with only two such awards active during the period under audit. Management acknowledges and agrees with the finding as presented. The Grants and Contracts Department (Department) tracked the monthly interest earned on the advance payment received from the DOD. The department requested clarification from the DOD as to what constitutes ?annually?. There was no clarification provided at the time from DOD, as such the department used the fiscal year-end. During the fiscal year 2022, the award went through a request for an extension which coincided with the award end period. The department elected to hold off on remitting the earned interest until a final resolution on the award extension period was received. The award closeout process would include the remittance interest earned. The award was extended for an additional 12 months, but the interest earned was not remitted timely. The department also experienced turnover of a manager and an accountant during fiscal year 2022, both were actively involved in the maintenance of the award in question. The interest earned has since been remitted to HHS. Management notes that award will end September 29, 2023 with no option to extend. Interest earned will be tracked by the department and remitted with closeout documents. The University of Alabama at Birmingham expects to have this item completed by October 2023. For follow-up questions and information, contact Bernard Mays, University Controller at bmaysjr@uab.edu.
