U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY 2022-003: Continuum of Care Program CFDA 14.267 Grant period: Year Ended June 30, 2022 Condition and Context: The Organization does not have a written procurement policy to properly implement all the requirements of 2 CFR Section 200.318 through 200.326 of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR Section 200.319(c), non-federal entities must have written procedures for procurement transactions. Such policy should incorporate all requirements within 2 CFR 200.318 through 200.326 of the Uniform Guidance. Cause: The Organization?s procurement policy does not incorporate all the requirements of 2 CFR Section 200.318 through 200.326 of the Uniform Guidance. Effect: An important component of internal controls is the existence of operating policies and procedures that are clearly understood and communicated. Without clear written policies and procedures, there is a higher risk of noncompliance with program compliance requirements. Recommendation: Management should continue to develop comprehensive written policies and procedures to administer all federal programs. Current written policies should be evaluated for inclusion of and compliance with the Uniform Guidance requirements. Grantee Response: Management agrees with the finding and will adopt written policies to comply with Uniform Guidance requirements.

Higher Horizons will ensure the segregation of duties in the Fiscal Department at all times to ensure business continuity. The newly developed procedure will address continuing business operations in the event of disasters and other high impact scenarios (i.e. staff transitions, emergency operations, etc.) Higher Horizons will refine and develop systems and fiscal procedures to ensure that when transitions of Finance Department staff occur, that all responsibilities are assigned to another individual. Fiscal operational procedures will reflect personnel assigned for tasks, authorizing responsibility, and approvals. Reconciling of accounts and review of all reconciliations and adjusting journal entries will be completed by someone other than the preparer. Higher Horizons' goal is to provide sufficient internal control over fiscal reporting so all necessary transactions are in accordance to generally accepted accounting principles.

October 14, 2022 U.S. Department of Education 400 Maryland Avenue, SW Washington, D.C. 20202 Re: Corrective Action Plan Finding 2022-001 Program: Federal Direct Loan Programs CFDA Number: 84.268 Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Education Federal Award Identification Number: P268K22059 Federal Award Year: June 30, 2022 Condition For 3 of 25 students included in our sample, the enrollment status was reported incorrectly. Two students were enrolled in Law Masters degree programs and were reported as less than full-time although should have been full time. Additionally, one GSEC Masters student was reported correctly on the program level enrollment reporting as withdrawn on March 15, 2022, however, the campus level reporting included an incorrect status of less than half time and status date of March 16, 2022 before later being corrected to withdrawn status date of March 15, 2022. The sample was not a statistically valid sample. Corrective Action Plan Management agrees with the finding, and is committed to strengthening its procedures to avoid similar issues in the future. The College has reconfirmed the full and part time definitions for Law Masters students, and corrected the underlying technical issue that had interfered with the reporting of correct enrollment statuses for Law Master's students. The correction of the enrollment status for the two Law Masters students in NSLDS is in process. The College has also updated the procedures and documentation for enrollment reporting of GSEC Masters students to ensure the scenario identified is handled correctly and consistently in the future. The College has corrected this student's program level withdrawal date in NSLDS. Lewis & Clark College Andrea Dooley Chief Financial Officer and Vice President of Operations

On a monthly basis, reconciliations will be performed on grant submissions and expenditures, and reviewed by the Controller, Director of Accounting, or CFO. The annual SEFA will be reviewed by the Director of Finance or CFO.

Finding #2022-001 Condition: The School District did not maintain proper time and effor records for employees who were partially funded with ESSER federal funds. Timesheets did not contain a certification clause that the information submitted accurately reflects the time and effor distribution, and the timesheet was not dated by the employee and/or supervisor.
