Corrective Action Plan: The Housing Authority concurs with the recommendation. The Authority recognizes that limited accounting staff and competing operational demands contributed to delays in completing accurate unaudited multifamily submissions and timely identifying necessary adjusting entries. Management is implementing a sustainable solution that combines specialized technical assistance, documented procedures, staff training, and executive review. The Authority has begun reviewing the calendar year 2021 submission and compiling the financial records required for the outstanding 2022 through 2025 submissions. The Authority is seeking to retain an expert in HUD Multifamily and REAC financial reporting to assist staff in correcting prior submissions and preparing, validating, and submitting all required filings. The Authority will complete the following corrective actions: 1. Reconcile and validate the general ledger balances, trial balances, and supporting schedules for each affected reporting year. 2. Correct and resubmit the calendar year 2021 unaudited multifamily submission and prepare and submit the required unaudited multifamily submissions for calendar years 2022 through 2025. 3. Establish a written year-end closing and REAC submission calendar and checklist identifying responsible staff, required supporting schedules, due dates, and supervisory review before submission. 4. Provide appropriate staff training and require quarterly management review of balance-sheet reconciliations, audit-adjustment status, and HUD submission deadlines until the backlog is eliminated and the revised controls are operating effectively. hese measures are designed to address the Authority's limited staffing capacity while creating a practical and sustainable process for accurate financial reporting and timely HUD submissions.

Corrective Action Plan: The Housing Authority concurs with the auditor's recommendation. The outstanding inter-entity balance has been identified as a legacy balance associated with the RAD conversion and the transfer of assets and liabilities to Athens Housing Management, LLC. Management's review and reconciliation of the balance are in progress. Before recording any final disposition, the Authority will determine the balance's origin, funding source, supporting documentation, legal obligation, and collectability, including whether federally restricted or RAD/PBRA project funds are involved. The Board of Commissioners may authorize the accounting disposition of the balance, subject to the Authority's governing documents and applicable law; however, a Board vote alone will not be treated as authority to forgive or extinguish a federally restricted or project-level receivable. The Authority will complete the following process: 1. Complete and document the reconciliation and proposed accounting treatment in both entities' records, with management and legal review, and provide the supporting documentation to the Authority's auditor. 2. Determine whether the balance is subject to the RAD closing documents, HAP Contract, RAD Use Agreement, Surplus Cash requirements, or other Federal restrictions. If so, submit the reconciliation, proposed entries, supporting documentation, and draft resolutions to the appropriate HUD Field Office or Multifamily Account Executive and obtain written direction or concurrence, as applicable. 3.Present conditional resolutions to the governing boards of the Housing Authority and Athens Housing Management, LLC, as applicable, authorizing the Chief Executive Officer to record the disposition only after all required HUD approvals or concurrences have been received. 4. Record corresponding entries in both entities, retain the complete reconciliation and approval package, and disclose the final resolution to the auditor. This process is consistent with 2 CFR §§ 200.302 and 200.303, which require accurate, supported financial records, accountability for Federal funds and assets, and documented internal controls. It also recognizes the RAD Notice requirements governing Surplus Cash and related-party advances. Going forward, inter-entity balances will be reconciled monthly, reviewed by management, and any unresolved items will be reported to the Chief Executive Officer as part of the monthly financial review.

2025-007 Federal Direct Student Loans – Assistance Listing No. 84.268 Federal Pell Grant Program – Assistance Listing No. 84.063 Recommendation: We recommend the University design controls to ensure an adequate review process is in place to ensure compliance over stale checks that need to be returned to the Department of Education after 240 days. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The University is implementing enhanced controls to ensure compliance with stale-dated Title IV credit balance checks. This includes establishing a monthly review process in coordination with Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, and the Financial Aid Office to identify any outstanding checks approaching or exceeding the 240-day threshold. As part of this process, a tracking mechanism will be maintained to monitor the status and issuance dates of all Title IV credit balance checks. The University will make reasonable efforts to contact students and reissue checks, as appropriate, to ensure funds are received. Any checks that remain uncashed and meet the stale-dated threshold will be voided and returned to the U.S. Department of Education in accordance with federal requirements. These procedures will be formalized within a standardized SOP to ensure consistent and timely compliance moving forward.

Finding Reference Number: 2025-001 – Internal Control over Compliance in Relation to Reporting Requirements Description of Finding: This is a new finding. For one of the seven projects reported under the Federal Program COVID-19 – Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF), the total cumulative expenditures did not match the current period expenditures. The total cumulative expenditures reported were $295,205, but the current period expenditures reported were $264,767, a difference of $30,438 Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: Partially Concur. Corrective Action: Our preliminary review indicates the discrepancy stems from the prior administration’s specific methodology and interpretation of reporting requirements, rather than a substantive reporting error. The report in question covered the period of January 2025-March 2025. The expenditures totaling $30,438 were related to Q4 2024, and documentation indicates it was the previous administration’s intention to capture the current period expenditures (Q1 2025) versus the full fiscal year. To eliminate confusion, the Finance Department is establishing a formalized Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) that outlines the reporting requirements for these projects. Projected Completion Date: December 31, 2026

Weekly Audits: Patient Services and Outreach Managers conduct regular weekly audits of a sample of sliding fee scale applications to verify that documentation of internal control procedures is consistently maintained. Any identified issues are addressed promptly with targeted corrective actions as needed. 4. Ongoing Monitoring: Results of the weekly audits are reviewed during monthly compliance meetings to ensure that corrective actions are implemented and sustained. Additional Context: This was an isolated case involving a staff member who was in training at the time of the incident and is no longer with the organization. All current staff have completed required training, and ongoing refresher sessions are in place to prevent recurrence. Person(s) Responsible: • Patient Services and Outreach Managers (for weekly checklist oversight, audits, and corrective actions) • Compliance Officer • CFO and PCHC Billing Timing for Implementation: • These practices are ongoing.

Child and Parent Services, Inc. Corrective Action Plan Audit year ended: December 31, 2025 Federal Agency: Department of Health and Human Services Federal Program: Temporary Assistance for Needy Families ALN: 93.558 Federal Award Numbers and Years: 46329; October 1, 2020 – September 30, 2026 Name and address of independent public accounting firm: Kruggel, Lawton & Company, LLC 317 W. Franklin St Elkhart, IN 46517 Description of Finding: Finding #: 2025-001 Out of a sample of 40 home visit notes, one lacked written evidence of supervisor approval. The grant is billed per family served based on completing various activities, including home visits. Under 2 CFR 200.303, the Organization is required to establish, document and maintain a system of effective internal control over federal awards to ensure that home visits occur and that the grant is billed only for families receiving services. Program supervisors failed to follow internal procedures to timely document review of home visits performed. The Organization could bill the grant without verification that a home visit occurred. We recommend that qualified personnel review the record of home visits within 30 days so that evidence of the approval is captured before lockdown occurs. Corrective Action Plan: Internal controls were immediately adjusted to ensure that supervisors review and document approval on each home visit prior to the lockdown date in the system. Supervisors will continue to meet weekly with each home visitor where they discuss each family being served and all activities that have taken place. The program will implement training for supervisors by August 31, 2026 to ensure that visit notes are approved within 45 days of the visit date and that a note is added in the system if the review is done after the 30-day lockdown period. Additionally, procedures will be implemented by August 31, 2026 for the Program Director to review a report of home visits lacking supervisor approval each month. The Program Director will follow up with the supervisors to resolve any unapproved visits identified in the monthly report.
