Finding 2023-002: Cash Management / Matching / Interest Earned. Contact Person: Jenaya L. Mellinger, Director of Fiscal Affairs. Recommendation: The County should establish a separate fund to account for the activity of the Children and Youth program. Response: The County agrees with the finding and will create a new fund – Fund 07 – in the County’s accounting software and will begin creating corresponding revenue and expense accounts to match the existing structure within the new fund. The County also opened a separate checking account at The Juniata Valley Bank for the Children and Youth Fund for all revenue and expenses beginning January 1, 2025. The County continues to engage an external third-party contractor provider familiar with Children and Youth Agency financial matters to assist in the transition, as well as with recent turnover in the financial positions within the Children and Youth Department. The County also made the affirmative decision to capitalize that fund with the prior year’s County-match at the start of the calendar year and continue to fund, as needed, throughout the year to insure the necessary County match is attained. The Children and Youth Agency will continue to insure compatibility and proper recording in MUNIS, the County accounting system, of all financial transactions to match with the internal accounting system maintained by the Children and Youth Agency. Action Planned: Post-audit submission, the County Director of Fiscal Affairs will meet and discuss with the engaged external service provider and the Children and Youth Finance Director and overall Child and Youth Agency Director to formulate the proper procedure for establishment of a separate fund balance as of January 1, 2025, and monitor proper posting of financial transactions in the appropriate fund to match all transactions posted in the internal accounting system maintained by the Children and Youth Agency. Date for Completion: January 1, 2025.

Corrective Action The program issues are systemic; therefore the corrective actions are identical. The MTW flexibility permits tri-annual recertification. The agency has been conducting tri-annual recertification for elderly and disabled households. Effective with February 2025 recerts, now in process, tri-annuals will be applied to all households. This significantly reduces the number of recertifications performed by each staff and permits significantly more attention to monitoring, oversight, training and correction. TGHA has hired temporary staff for an extended period to focus on file organization and to correct documentation deficiencies. All HCV staff have completed Rent Calculation courses provided by NAHRO or Nan McKay during the fiscal year. There have been two managers hired for the department, one exclusively for project-based vouchers. Both attended NAHRO supervisory training in September. There will be an intensive focus on program integrity throughout the year. TGHA has contracted with a professional recruiter to assist in hiring a Director of the HCV and MTW programs. Recertification transactions will be monitored on a monthly basis. This will include validation of calculations and verification of correct documentation. It is anticipated that TGHA files will be fully in order by July 2025.
