Condition: Management did not retain evidence of the execution of the Organization’s internal controls over the review and or authorization of the payment or reimbursement of credit card charges during the year. Recommendation: Management should document the review and/or authorization of credit card charges and reimbursement. Views of responsible officials: The Organization will adopt a new policy on corporate credit cards with the following general provisions. Corporate credit cards may only be issued to the Executive Director and, if approved by the Executive Director, to the heads of shelter operations, and the Organization’s Accountant. All charges shall be made solely for goods or services for the use or benefit of the Organization. Use of the credit card for the purchase of gift cards or recurring automatic transactions can only be made by the Executive Director or the Organization’s Accountant after approval by Executive Director. Receipts shall be provided to the internal accountant monthly by the 5th day of the following month. The internal accountant shall prepare a summary of all charges highlighting any 1) that are not supported by a receipt, or 2) appear questionable, and also an allocation of each charge to the appropriate expense category for financial reporting. The summary and the credit card statement shall be provided to the Executive Director for review and approval. The Executive Director will spot check actual receipt documentation for credit card2 purchases of the Organization’s Accountant and the Shelter Director. In the case of the credit card used by the Executive Director, the summary and statement shall be reviewed and approved by the Treasurer or Board President. Any improper or unsupported transaction shall create a reimbursement obligation by the card holder to the Organization. Misuse of the credit card shall be a cause for discipline in accordance with the employment manual.

The payroll procedures in place for processing payroll and paying related liabilities will be reviewed and adjusted to correct the misstatement of payroll expenses and to prevent future overpayments of liabilities. Additionally, the identified overpayments will be reimbursed to the Grantor. This will be accomplished by applying a Head Start 2025 Accounts Payable adjustment and issuing a refund check to the Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO) for the applicable programs. These corrective measures will ensure that all affected program accounts are accurately reconciled and that a zero balance is achieved for finding 2024-001.

Management’s Response and Corrective Action Plan: MLSC concurs with the audit finding. Management acknowledges that the previous cash disbursement policy did not fully incorporate the requirements outlined in LSC Financial Guide § 3.2.4. MLSC believes that with the implementation of the revised Cash Disbursement Policy and related staff training, all recommendations in the audit finding have been fully addressed. Responsible person: Exec. Director, Lee Pliscou and Chief Fiscal Officer, Jocelyn Mallari Corrective action planned: MLSC has reviewed and revised the policy, and the Board of Directors approved an updated Cash Disbursement policy that fully aligned with the LSC Financial Guide. MLSC staff were trained on the new procedures to ensure full understanding and compliance. The revised policy was shared with all the staff at MLSC’s share drive.

Management’s Response and Corrective Action Plan: MLSC management would like to provide the following clarification regarding the finding that MLSC did not use the prior-year end fund balance before expending the current year’s LSC grant. Just in the first month of 2024, we already have a substantial deficit from the funding that we received. We have started using the fund balance that is in our bank account. There was no other source of funds for us but the fund balance. Being non-profit, whatever is on hand is used first and whatever is received last is the actual cash on hand at the end of the year. It is also important to note that MLSC’s local funder's grants are not received on a regular monthly basis. Some are disbursed quarterly, and FSM is received only once—typically toward the end of the fiscal year. The appearance of using current-year funds first is due to the timing and presentation in the audit schedule, not the actual fund flow. Responsible person: Chief Fiscal Officer, Jocelyn Mallari Corrective action planned: None Anticipated completion date: Completed.

Finding Number: 2024-003 Allowable Costs; Cash Management (Material Weakness) Programs: Unaccompanied Children Program ALN#93.676 Contract#: 90ZU0323 & 90ZU0548 Contract Period: 07/01/23 - 06/30/24 Planned Corrective Action: The auditors noted that certain payroll expenses and other than personnel service (OTPS) expenses are not being charged directly or allocated to the correct cost center in the accounting system monthly. Therefore, the amounts being drawn down during any given month may not be fully supported until the year-end when a reallocation of costs by function occurs. Beginning in FY 2025, personnel costs are being manually recorded to the correct cost centers in Serenic Navigator each month. Additionally, OTPS expenses have been charged directly or allocated to the appropriate cost centers on a monthly basis since January 2025.

The County’s existing policies are currently under review by management and staff to determine what updates/changes are necessary in order to meet the Uniform Guidance requirements.

Condition: During our audit of the financial management system and cash management practices for the Ryan White Federal Program, we identified the following deficiencies: Transposed Drawdown Amount: A drawdown request submitted to the PMS system for the Ryan White Program had the requested amount transposed with the amount of another federal program. This resulted in an over-request of a material amount on the Ryan White Program. Duplicate Invoice Reimbursement: An invoice was requested and received for reimbursement on a prior drawdown and was subsequently included again in a draw after year-end, resulting in a duplicate reimbursement. Incomplete Expenditure Tracking: The entity did not have a complete system for tracking all expenditures eligible for reimbursement. The drawdown process was limited to cash disbursement and payroll transactions and excluded expenditures incurred and recorded by journal entries. This resulted in the entity having unreimbursed expenditures that could have offset the over-requests noted above. Corrective Action Plan: To correct the deficiency, we are implementing a plan focused on establishing a review and approval process for all drawdown requests and revising our policies to ensure that all eligible incurred expenditures are properly captured and reconciled, thereby assuring strict compliance with federal cash management regulations and preventing federal funds from exceeding our immediate needs.

Federal Program Information Federal Agencies: Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) Pass-Through Entity: Virginia Department of Health; Not Applicable Pass-Through Entity Number: INORWB611-GY23; INORWB611-GY24; Not Applicable Awards: Assistance Listing 93.917 – HIV Emergency Relief Project Grants; Assistance Listing 93.918 – Grants to Provide Outpatient Early Intervention Services with Respect to HIV Disease Award Periods: April 1, 2023 to March 31, 2024; April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025; May 1, 2023 to April 30, 2024; May 1, 2024 to April 30, 2025 Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance Description: Timely Application of Program Income Prior to Requesting Additional Cash Payments Recommendation: During the latter part of the fiscal year and as a result of prior year audit findings, IJP implemented various checkpoints in their monthly processes to ensure that program income was disbursed prior to requesting cash reimbursements. IJP should continue to assess existing policies and procedures to ensure the program income balance is spent timely. HRSA recommends that recipients and subrecipients strive to proactively secure and estimate the extent to which program income will be accrued. View of responsible officials: Management concurs with the finding and has implemented procedures to ensure appropriate and timely application of program income. Corrective Action Planned: Inova Grants Accounting and Inova Juniper Program (IJP) directors will work collaboratively to disburse funds available from program income prior to requesting additional cash payments from RWHAP funds. Inova implemented a Program Income from Sponsored Programs policy in February 2025. Inova will assess this written procedure and revise as necessary to ensure that program income is applied before requesting federal reimbursement. Inova will review federal grant requirements related to program income and identify sources of program income during kickoff meetings for new awards. Mandatory training will be conducted for program and finance staff responsible for the administration of these awards. (2 CFR 200.307 and 200.305) Inova will require a monthly reconciliation of program income earned and expenditures by grant. Program income tracking will also be included in monthly grant variance reports. Planned Completion Date for Corrective Action Planned: Ongoing with completion date of December 31, 2025.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: According to Appendix: American Rescue Plan CSLFRF HVAC Replacement and Improvement Grant Assurances of the 2021 CSLFRF HVAC Application it is stated the LEA/grantee assures: IX. It will submit such reports to the state educational agency as the state educational agency and Secretary may require to enable the state educational agency and the Secretary to perform their duties under the program; The LEA has also submitted an official correspondence to the Auditors from the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Education’s Director of the Office of Federal Pandemic Relief Programs stating the following: On April 25, 2023, the Virginia Department of Education conducted monitoring to ensure that certain federally funded programs and activities supported with Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) formula grants; ESSER and Governor’s Emergency Education Relief (GEER) state setaside grants; and Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (CSLFRF) HVAC grants were implemented as stipulated by law. These federally funded programs were reviewed as operated by Richmond City Public Schools. Furthermore, RPS is a subrecipient. As such it is our stance that RPS was not required to create or submit quarterly financial activity reports to US Treasury. We were also not required to submit quarterly financial reports to the recipient (i.e. the Commonwealth of Virginia). Instead, RPS regularly submitted expenditures for reimbursement to VDOE on a nearly monthly basis via OMEGA. We also maintained financial records (invoices, GL transactions) via AS400 and LINQ and conducted annual single audits as required by the Single Audit Act & 2 CFR part 200, subpart F. We also complied with all monitoring activities conducted by VDOE. In turn, VDOE (the award recipient) used these artifacts to create and submit its quarterly financial reports to US Treasury, as required by statute. For more evidence of this "passthrough" structure of reporting, see the attached SLFRF Compliance and Reporting Guidance published by US Treasury and Updated October 2025 Part 2 Section B (p. 21-22) for a detail of which entities are required to submit quarterly reports. The following recipients are required to submit quarterly Project and Expenditure Reports: • States and U.S. territories • Tribal governments that are allocated more than $30 million in SLFRF funding • Metropolitan cities and counties with a population that exceeds 250,000 residents Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds C • Metropolitan cities and counties with a population below 250,000 residents that are allocated more than $10 million in SLFRF funding • NEUs [Non-Entitlement Units of Government] that are allocated more than $10 million in SLFRF funding RPS does not fall into any of the aforementioned categories. We humble ask that you reconsider this finding.

November 4, 2025 Carver, Florek & James CPA’s Attn: Keegan Witt Audit Findings Corrective Action Plan Finding number: Section III: Federal Awards Findings and Questioned Costs Contact Person Responsible: Bonnie Buckingham Corrective Action Planned: Financial procedures that Community Food & Agriculture routinely follow are as follows: - Operations & Finance Manager will pull reports from QuickBooks accounting software for all federal grants for which a request for funds will be generated. - Executive Director reviews the draw down request, signs off on it, and the Executive Director or the Operations & Finance Manager files a request from the Federal portal, for funds expended for a specific program. All current and future expenditures and drawdown requests will be signed and dated with an electronic stamp certification prior to any drawdown request, as per the Financial Procedures stated above. All staff have been made aware of the strict adherence to this policy. Anticipated Completion Date will be immediate. Sincerely, Bonnie Buckingham Executive Director
