The Corporation identified a subrecipient’s misuse of grant funds during a regular audit of draws and a scheduled monitoring review/technical assistance consultation for the agency. Ethic complaints were received by the Corporation during the same timeframe regarding the subrecipient’s management which expanded the scope of the financial review. As a result of these monitoring efforts, the Corporation identified ineligible and questioned costs, and efforts are underway to recapture ineligible and unsupported costs. The Corporation has put the following policies and procedures in place to mitigate future risk: 1. Biennial Risk Assessment with Annual Updates 2. Annual Project Compliance Report (APCR) required by subrecipient agencies (with the exception of subrecipients receiving only Department of Energy and LIHEAP grants for the Weatherization Assistance Program, which are governed by separate monitoring procedures). 3. Enhanced Draw Monitoring and draw documentation requirements 4. Expansion of the Corporation’s Compliance and Training Team Given the policies, procedures, and changes outlined above, the Corporation feels confident it will be able to comply with its Compliance Monitoring Plan going forward and identify any concerns with subrecipient compliance in a timely manner. Curtis Stauffer, Managing Director, Housing Contract Administration, and applicable compliance staff will implement by October 1, 2024.

Consolidated Health Centers Grant – Assistance Listing No. 93.224 & 93.527 Recommendation: Our auditors recommended the Organization to review internal controls in regards to the approval of federal fund drawdown requests. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: We have reviewed all our internal controls to ensure all approvals are documented. The procedure has been updated to include preparing the draw documentation, entering the accounts receivable invoice into the accounting system, which now requires an approval for all accounts receivable invoices. Once the accounts receivable invoices are approved in the accounting system then a draw down can be requested in the payment management system. This new process to ensure the documented approval of federal fund drawdown's was implemented mid-year 2024, after the three selections in this finding were completed.

Action taken in response to finding: The Organization made changes to improve the process and procedure based on the 2023 audit finding, but they were not implemented until midyear 2024 based on the completion of the audit. It is expected that 100% improvement in findings would not take place with this late implementation. There was an improvement over the prior year, especially in the lack of documentation on file. The monthly audit process to spot check applications for accuracy and ensure complete documentation in the chart was also implemented mid-year in 2024.
