2022-003 Reporting Federal Program – All federal programs Criteria – The data collection form must be completed and submitted within nine months of the Organization’s fiscal year end. Condition and Context – As a result of a conversion to a new accounting system, the impact of COVID-19, and reconciliation differences, the data collection form was not timely submitted for the year ended December 31, 2023. Questioned Costs – None. Effect – The Organization was not in compliance with the Uniform Guidance reporting requirements. Cause – With the conversion to a new accounting system, combined with the COVID-19, new accounting staff and reconciliation differences, the data collection form could not be timely completed and submitted. Recommendation – The financial records of the Organization should be reconciled and closed shortly after year-end, which will permit the timely submission of the data collection form. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions Management agrees with this finding. We will anticipate being able to comply with this requirement effective with the FY2024 audit. Anticipated Completion Date: The financial records for the year ended December 31, 2024, will be reconciled and closed, permitting the audited financial statements, financial reporting package and data collection form to be filed timely by September 30, 2025.

Fraud was identified by board members of the Dover Interfaith Mission for Housing (DIMH) in November 2023 with respect to the Emergency Housing and Health programs, and an internal investigation ensued. Prior to this finding, a committee of the board reviewed the Executive Director’s (ED) financial reporting and were confident in her documentation, which was also approved by the City of Dover manager of the Emergency Housing and Health programs. Briefly, the ED had invented invoices from motels and landlords along with applications from individuals and families who did not exist. In both programs, DIMH provided funds to cover motel stays and landlord payments and was reimbursed by the City of Dover. In practice, the ED simply took DIMH funds, deposited them into a personal account, and provided invented documents to the City that resulted in reimbursement to DIMH. This clever ruse had eluded both board and city personnel monitoring the expenditures and reimbursements. Once there was suspicion of fraud, board members not involved in prior program oversight actively reviewed files with the City’s program manager to ascertain its extent. A meeting was held between the board chair and the city’s program manager to review all files in order to determine the approximate extent of the fraud, which was clearly limited to these two grant programs. In early January 2024, DIMH board members arranged to meet with the Dover Police Department to provide an overview of the fraud. This led to police contact with local FBI and HUD inspector general offices along with the US attorney for Delaware, with the same board members providing all files and in-person descriptions of the scam. On February 28, 2025, the former ED met with federal officials to determine whether to endeavor to resolve the matter or to engage in litigation. She was given March 14, 2025 as a deadline for her decision. At that date, she agreed to work towards a settlement of resolution of the case and not to go to court. The details of this agreement are pending as of March 14, 2025. In early 2024, the DIMH board engaged a new external accounting firm and created a new control environment with significant internal controls and separation of duties developed in collaboration with the contracted CPA firm.

2023-004 Allowable Costs Program Name: Child Nutrition Cluster Assistance Listing Number: 10.553 and 10.555 Pass-Through Agency: Georgia Department of Education Criteria: In accordance with the terms of the Child Nutrition Grant and 2 CFR 200, Cost Principles for States, Local Governments, and Indian Tribes, specific documentation must be maintained to support salaries and wages charged to the federal program. Where employees are expected to work solely on a single Federal award or cost objective, charges for their salaries and wages will be supported by periodic certifications that the employees worked solely on that program for the period covered by the certification. These certifications will be prepared at least semi-annually and will be signed by the employee or supervisory official having first-hand knowledge of the work performed by the employee. Where employees work on multiple activities or cost objectives, a distribution of their salaries or wages will be supported by personnel activity reports or equivalent documentation. Corrective Action Plan: We concur with this finding. The District is developing corrective actions to strengthen Child Nutrition Cluster Department internal controls, policies, and procedures and ensure adherence through improved monitoring. Through collaboration, the Finance Division and the School Nutrition Department will review payroll detail reports and ensure periodic certifications for all employees are completed timely.
