Subject: Corrective Action Plan MAVI Finding Reference: Federal Award Findings and Questioned Costs - Reporting Requirements Audit Period: Year Ended September 30, 2024 This Corrective Action Plan has been developed by Movimiento para el Alcance de Vida Independiente (MAVI) in response to the findings identified in the Single Audit Report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024. The plan outlines specific measures that the organization is implementing to address the noted deficiencies related to federal reporting requirements, particularly the late submission of the audit report to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC). MAVI is committed to maintaining full compliance with the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), as well as strengthening its internal controls and financial reporting practices. This plan includes detailed corrective actions, responsible personnel, completion timelines, and current status updates to ensure accountability and transparency. The goal of this corrective action plan is to prevent future occurrences, enhance internal processes, and ensure timely and accurate reporting of all federally funded programs managed by the organization.

The County does not have a complete set of written cash management policies and procedures as required by the Uniform Guidance. The lack of written procedures did not result in any material noncompliance, fraud or abuse with respect to the major program. Recommendation: Management should determine the scope of written policies needed for compliance with all federal programs and develop policies and procedures to comply with the Uniform Guidance. 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.

October 30, 2025 Person responsible: Fernando Soto, President / CEO Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2024 Section III – Federal Awards Findings and Questioned Costs Item 2024 – 001 Federal Assistance Listing Number: 93.914 HIV Emergency Relief Project Grants – Public Health Solutions Condition The Organization’s Data Collection Form submission to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse was not filed on time within nine months of the end of its fiscal year. Current Status The delay in submission to the FAC was due to a combination of factors, including the extended time required to prepare the fiscal year 2024 financial statements and compile supporting documentation, as well as delays in the completion of the audit process. To support timely future submissions, the organization will implement the recommended control procedures and adopt an internal timeline beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. In addition, the audit process will be initiated earlier to ensure completion and submission by the established deadline of September 30, 2026.

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.

Views of Responsible Officials: Management understands and agrees. Unfortunately, this issue was identified late into FY24 when the FY23 audit was being completed so the issue persisted into FY24. From the corrective action plans taken from the FY23 audit and desk review, this issue has been addressed and resolved in early FY25. MBN currently has an SOP regarding fixed assets that is already implemented. To address these concerns, MBN updated the SOP to include a clear process for equipment disposals, specifically for assets with a fair market value over $10,000, in accordance with Uniform Guidance. This update will ensure that all disposals are properly documented, and appropriate notifications are made to USAGM. We would like to confirm that the equipment disposal forms have already been updated to ensure that all necessary responses are reviewed and accurately completed as part of the notification process for disposals. Furthermore, we have strengthened our tracking, reporting and disposal processes to ensure the final disposition of equipment, including salvage value, is appropriately recorded.
Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees and if funding had not stopped, audit fieldwork was originally slated to begin April 1st which would have allowed for timely completion. We fully intend to complete our FY25 audit well before the nine-month deadline.

Audit Finding 2024-001 Reference: Over-allocation of payroll expenditures to grant-funded programs (2 instances out of 40 sampled) ________________________________________ 1. Issue Summary During the audit of allowable payroll costs, two instances of over-allocation to grant-funded programs were identified. These occurred early in the fiscal year due to imprecise monthly allocation methods and insufficient review prior to posting. ________________________________________ 2. Root Cause Analysis • Use of a monthly allocation methodology lacking precision. • Insufficient review and approval of payroll allocations before posting. • Lack of real-time substantiation of salary distributions with actual time worked. ________________________________________ 3. Corrective Actions • Already implemented in the second half of the fiscal year, continue using the granular allocation method based on actual pay periods; including ongoing monitoring. • Implement a mandatory review of payroll allocations by project staff with support from SP&F accountants • Require timesheets or effort certifications and manager’s approval for personnel charged to federal awards. • Update internal payroll allocation policies to reflect new methodology and controls. • Conduct training sessions for finance and staff assigned to grants on revised payroll allocation procedures and compliance requirements. ________________________________________ 4.

2024-001 Improper Payroll Approvals Criteria: In accordance with the Agency’s written internal controls, for employee timesheets, “Supervisors review and approve subordinate’s time at the end of the pay period”. Condition: For 21 of 40 payroll transactions selected for testing during the year under audit, there was no approval of the employee’s timesheet by a Supervisor. Cause: Control activities relating to payroll timesheet approvals are not functioning properly, and the Agency was unable to provide written supporting documentation of Supervisor approval. Effect: The Agency is not following its documented internal controls relating to payroll timesheet approvals on a consistent basis. Recommendation: We recommend that the Agency adhere to written internal controls and ensure that all employee timesheets are approved at a level higher than the employee themselves. Additionally, we recommend that appropriate documentation of the approvals is retained. Corrective Action Plan: Employees approve their timesheets electronically, and then it moves to the manager for approval. Once approved the HR Manager reviews and makes any necessary corrections. The COO reviews it once corrected and approves the payroll for processing. The HR Manager will continue working with the payroll vendor to see if they could create a special report to use for our audit. We will create a log for the HR Manager and COO to initial to verify they approved the payroll.
