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. Person Responsible: The Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer Completion Date: January 2025

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management agrees with the finding and recommendation. 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. Once any updates/changes are drafted, the policy will be presented to the Governing Body for review and approval.

Compliance with Cash Management Requirements Planned Corrective Action: Heartland Alliance Health has established a formal Drawdown Policy and Procedure designed to ensure compliance with federal cash management regulations and to prevent premature or excessive drawdowns of grant funds.

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. Responsible Party: Austin Maddox, CFO Anticipated Completion Date: December 31, 2025

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.

The organization acknowledges that unallowable rent costs were claimed and payment received under government grants and contracts resulting in overstating revenues for FY24, and that adjustments were necessary to the financial statements to correct the resulting deficiencies. As indicated, however, this overstating was due to the unique situation that existed as a result of the landlord’s breaking the organization’s lease, suddenly and without notice. Rent costs were claimed for as long as the organization was liable for the rent. After the liability was forgiven by the landlord, rent costs were returned to the funders.
