The Organization accepts the recommendation of the auditor. In the future, the Organization will implement an additional internal control regarding the verification of eligibility for Educational Opportunity Centers' participants. Specifically, in cases where the staff member who signed the "Verification of Eligibility and Acceptance" form does not check off the citizenship status or need areas on the form, the data entry specialist will return the participant folder to that staff member to obtain the required eligibility information before including the participant in the database. In the event that the eligibility information is unobtainable, the participant will not be input into the database nor counted as a participant. In addition, more periodic testing of files will be undertaken to identify any participants who do not have the necessary eligibility information, with corrective action taken as needed.

Isuroon acknowledges the audit finding and has taken proactive steps to implement a comprehensive corrective plan. The ongoing recruitment of an experienced finance director, as outlined, marks a crucial milestone in strengthening leadership and oversight within the finance department. This individual will bring invaluable expertise to ensure that accounting processes adhere to regulatory mandates, including those stipulated in 2 CFR 200.512. Furthermore, the engagement of a certified accounting firm for monthly reviews of the books of accounts underscores Isuroon's proactive approach to enhancing financial controls. This external oversight not only complements the efforts of the finance director but also provides an additional layer of assurance regarding the accuracy and completeness of accounting records throughout the fiscal year. Moreover, the CEO's commitment to closely monitor the accounting department and collaborate closely with the finance team, under the guidance of the new finance director, underscores Isuroon's dedication to timely reporting. The CEO's direct involvement will foster ongoing communication and cooperation, ensuring that periodic reports are promptly disseminated to donors, auditors, the board of directors, and all other relevant stakeholders. By leveraging these resources and fostering a culture of accountability and transparency, Isuroon is well-positioned to address the root causes of the audit findings and establish robust mechanisms for the timely submission of audit reporting packages in the future.

We agree that due to the turnover of finance staff and the lack of consistent leadership in the finance department, we realized the need for strong leadership for our finance team. Consequently, the recruitment of an experienced Finance Director is in process, who has extensive experience working with nonprofit organizations, the U.S. government, and the United Nations. This new hire will ensure the finance department has strong leadership with a deep understanding of GAAP standards and the complexities involved in nonprofit accounting. Additionally, existing staff members will receive comprehensive training on GAAP and other relevant financial procedures to ensure they have the necessary knowledge and skills to perform their duties accurately. This training will be ongoing to keep the staff updated on any changes in accounting standards and practices. Furthermore, Isuroon will engage a certified accounting firm to conduct monthly reviews of its books of accounts. This firm will provide regular feedback and guidance, identifying any discrepancies or areas needing improvement and suggesting best practices to ensure compliance with GAAP and the accuracy of financial reporting. By implementing these measures, we aim to establish robust internal controls over the financial closing process, ensuring all necessary adjustments are recorded and reviewed in a timely manner. This comprehensive approach will mitigate the risk of material misstatements, enhance the reliability of financial statements, and demonstrate a commitment to transparency and accountability in financial management.

Finding 2022-001 Condition Bread & Roses Community Fund did not submit its June 30, 2022 reporting package within the required timeframe. 2 CFR 200.152(c) requires that an entity submit the audited financial statements and data collection form ("reporting package") within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the audit or nine months after the end of the audit period. Criteria Bread & Roses Community Fund is responsible for establishing internal controls to make sure the reporting package is submitted timely. Cause Bread & Roses Community Fund was not able to complete the reporting package by the required time period due to staffing issues. Effect Bread & Roses Community Fund did not submit its June 30, 2022 reporting package within the required timeframe. Recommendation Bread & Roses Community Fund should develop a reporting package timeline and submit the required documents within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the audit or nine months after the end of the audit period. View of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action Management agrees with this recommendation. The COVID-19 pandemic presented significant challenges for Bread & Roses Community Fund. During the global pandemic, we doubled our commitment to the grassroots organizations we support and our stakeholders when other organizations paused programming. Despite key staff departures and substantial changes to service providers, we remained steadfast in our mission, working tirelessly to orchestrate fiscal operations and connect programmatic processes. This resulted in us needing more operational capacity to redirect resources to assist our 2 communities and those most affected by the pandemic. These shifts in operations contributed to a delay in submitting the reporting package for FY22. Management and the Board of Directors of Bread & Roses Community Fund are actively working to address the capacity challenges that lead to reporting delays through an extensive process review. The organization aims to build the necessary capacity to support and develop its fiscal infrastructure. In September 2023, Bread & Roses successfully hired our first internal Senior Director of Finance and Operations. Since then, Management has been diligently working to streamline processes, standardize procedures, and improve workflows between Bread & Roses's programmatic areas and finance. These improvements are designed to ensure operational efficiency, including the timely preparation and submission of the reporting package. We have established a routine month-end close through the checklist implementation completed by the Senior Director of Finance & Operations and reviewed by the Executive Director. The addition of this monthly process will ensure timely submission of the reporting package at year-end. While the work to develop BRCF's fiscal infrastructure is ongoing, we anticipate having a complete set of systems and controls to remediate findings by the end of FY25.

View of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action This finding relates to the late deposit of the required amount to the Replacement for Reserve as required by HUD. The late deposits were due to the timing of cash flows and the deficiency of cash available to make the deposit. The property manager is in the process of working with HUD to increase rents and make the property more financially self-sufficient. The late deposits were made to the Replacement for Reserve before the end of the Organization’s year end, September 30, 2022. Therefore, no further corrective action plan is deemed necessary at this time.
