RE: Corrective Action Plan Year Ended June 30, 2022 Finding Year 2022-001 Management acknowledges that the entire Student Aid Portion of the HEERF award was properly disbursed to students; however, there were undetected errors in the information obtained from an internal data reporting system which led to amounts being distributed to students that did not comply with the institution's policy. Management will defer to the Department of Education regarding the steps required to correct the error.

FINDING 2022-002 Information on the federal program: Subject: Education Stabilization Fund - Annual Data Report Federal Agency: Department of Education Federal Program: COVID-19 - Education Stabilization Fund Assistance Listing Number: 84.425C, 84.425D, 84.425U Pass-Through Entity: Indiana Department of Education Compliance Requirement: Reporting Audit Finding: Material Weakness Condition: The School Corporation did not have a documented review control in place to ensure the annual data report was reviewed by someone other than the preparer. Context: There was no documented review by someone other than the preparer of the Annual Data Report to ensure the information submitted was complete and accurate. Additionally, the ESSER II Year 1 Annual Data Report submitted to the Indiana Department of Education did not disclose any expenditures and was therefore, understated by approximately $394,000. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management agrees with the finding and will take the following corrective action. The Annual Data Report will be reviewed, approved and signed by the Superintendent before it is submitted. Responsible party and timeline for completion: The Corporation Treasurer will be responsible effective immediately.

The Food Service Director will have the School Nutrition Program Director review, approve and initial the sponsor claim reimbursement summary before submission. Responsible party and timeline for completion: School Nutrition Program Director and School Treasurer will be responsible effective immediately.

Identifying Number: Finding 2022-001 Late Data Collection Form Filing Finding: The District?s fiscal year 2021 Single Audit package was not submitted to the Federal Clearinghouse within the required time period. School District 54 Corrective Action Plan: Uniform Guidance 2 CFR 200.512(a) requires that each organization?s audit must be completed and the data collection form and reporting package should be submitted within the earlier of 30 days after receipt of the auditor?s report or nine months after the end of the audit period. The Single Audit package for the District's year ended June 30, 2021 and audit report was issued on December 27, 2021, as such data collection form should have been submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by January 27, 2022. The audit was not completed until December 27, 2021, which put a lot of strain on internal resources and the District could not independently track the submission of the data collection form. The District will make sure that the data collection form is filed timely after the audit is complete.

Finding No. 2022-001 ? Section 811 ? CFDA No. 14.181 Type of Finding ? Federal Award Finding Finding Resolution Status ? In progress Criteria or Specific Condition ? Under the terms of the Capital Advance Program Regulatory Agreement, the Project is required to obtain a written approval of all withdrawals from the residual receipt. Statement of Condition ? During the year ended June 30, 2021, an excess deposit of $1,086 was made to the residual receipt. During the year ended June 30, 2022, the excess deposit of $1,086 made in 2021 was withdrawn, however the withdrawal was not approved by HUD. Cause ? It was an oversight of management to withdraw the additional deposits made in the prior year without HUD approval. Effect or Potential Effect ? The Project is not in compliance with the regulatory agreement with HUD. Auditor Non-Compliance Code ? A ? Unauthorized withdrawal from residual receipt account. Questioned Costs ? $1,086 Reporting View of Responsible Officials ? We concur with the auditor?s recommendation. Recommendation ? We recommend that management obtain a written approval from HUD for all withdrawals from the residual receipt. Auditor?s Summary of the Auditee?s Comments on the Findings and Recommendations ? Agree Response Indicator ? Agree Completion Date ? November 3, 2022 Response ? While we are aware of the need for HUD approval prior to withdrawing funds from the residual receipt account, the accounting team was not aware of the need to seek approval for mis-deposited funds, thinking that this was correcting an error, not compounding it. The accounting team will agree the required deposit to the surplus cash calculation per the Audited Financial Statements and Supplementary Information so that the correct amount is transferred from the operating account to the residual receipt account which will eliminate the possibility of overfunding the account. On the off chance that funds are mistakenly deposited into the residual receipt account in the future, the accounting team is also now aware of the need to get HUD approval to remove the funds from the account.

Incorrect and Untimely Return of Title IV (R2T4) Funds Planned Corrective Action: The Financial Aid Office reviewed the new modular regulations and guidance again as it was identified that exemption(s) were missed in the initial review. The team updated the 2021 NASFAA R2T4 decision tree with notes breaking down the complexity of the new modular regulations and how they apply to our modules/programs. The unofficial withdrawal list for the academic year was re-requested from the registrar?s office and reviewed. Students that met exemption were awarded funds back, recalculated if needed, and processed. Although the Financial Aid Office did implement changes on identifying unofficial withdraws (students were identified) from the prior year finding, the complexity of the modular regulations impacted the finding for 2022. A review of each student?s module will be performed (Executive Director of Financial Aid / Lead Director) and then reviewed and processed by staff member (Financial Aid Director). The final determination list will be compared to the R2T4?s processed.

Enterprise Residential, LLC Telephone Number 443-451-6809 The following is a recommended format to be followed by the auditee for preparing a corrective action plan: A. Current Findings on the Schedule of Findings, Questioned Costs and Recommendations 1. Finding 2022-1 a. Comments on the Finding and Each Recommendation Management understands the importance of an internal control system that tracks tenants that are terminated from the Section 8 program to ensure each tenant ledger card is updated and appropriate billed through the subsidiary ledger. b. Action(s) Taken or Planned on the Finding Management is working closely with the third party compliance firm to make necessary changes to the recertification processes that were in place. The following process improvements have been made: 1. The third party compliance firm was erroneously terminating tenants from the billing system at 60 days past recertification date versus the full 90 day grace period past recertification date. This has been corrected to 90 days. 2. The third party compliance firm is now generating a monthly report and sending it to Management to communicate what residents are terminating from the billing system. This was previously not being communicated. 3. Management is focused on reviewing this monthly reporting along with Rent Rolls to appropriately charge residents who terminated from the billing system. In addition, Management has made the following improvements to their internal processes: 1. Recertification reminder letters are being consistently sent to residents at 120, 90, 60, and 30 days prior to recertification date. 2. Incentives are in place to encourage site associates to complete recertification tasks timely including staff lunches. After working hour sessions are also being held. 3. Third party consultants are being utilized on some of the more extreme cases where large numbers of recertifications are overdue. 4. Site associates are going door to door and enlisting help from Resident Services teams to engage residents.

Federal Grantor: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Family Violence Prevention and Services/State Domestic Violence Coalitions, State Coalition Technical Assistance and Training Program, Director Program, Federal Assistance List Number 93.591 Condition: The Partnership did not submit its annual performance progress reports (PPR) and Federal Financial Reports (SF-425) for the years ended September 30, 2021 as of the required due date of 90 days after the September 30 year-end for three of the four individual grants sampled under the program. Auditor Recommendation: The Partnership should strengthen its internal control procedures over reporting to ensure that all required reports are prepared and submitted in a timely manner. Multiple staff should be trained to prepare reports in case of staff turnover or other circumstances. A summary of required reports and due dates should be prepared using the terms and conditions of each grant to facilitate this process. The Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards schedule provided during the audit could be updated to include this information since it already includes program names, funder numbers used in the GL, period of performance and other information for each grant that would be useful to prepare the reports. Partnership Contact Person Responsible for the Corrective Action: Aleese Moore-Orbih, Executive Director Management Response and Corrective Action Plan: The Partnership concurs with the finding and recommendation. We have already created an internal document the includes the information from the SEFA as well as the requirements for reporting. Each grant has been assigned to a director-level employee to ensure that reporting requirements are met. In addition, new staff is being hired to be a backup to the Director.

Auditor Recommendation: The Partnership should work with its external accounting firm to ensure the SEFA is complete and accurate and expenses agree to federal revenues reported and ensure revenues and expenses for each federal grant are included in the appropriate grouping code for the grant so revenues and expenses claimed are accounted for separately in the general ledger. Partnership Contact Person Responsible for the Corrective Action: Aleese Moore-Orbih, Executive Director Management Response and Corrective Action Plan: The Partnership concurs with the finding and recommendation. We have begun the process of increasing the capacity of our finance department to include an Associate Director, who, like the Senior Director, will be familiar with Uniform Guidance and nonprofit grants management and accounting. They will work in collaboration with our accounting consultants to ensure the SEFA is complete and accurate and agrees to recorded revenue. The target date for hiring is September 1, 2023.

Name and Address of independent accounting firm: Evers & Company, CPA?s, L.L.C., 520 Dix Road, Jefferson City, Missouri, 65109 Audit Period: Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2022 The findings from the December 31, 2022 schedule of findings and questioned costs are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the numbers assigned in the schedule. FINDINGS ? FINANCIAL STATEMENT AUDIT Significant Deficiencies: 2022 - 001 Internal Control over Financial Reporting Recommendation: We recommend that the Board of Directors be aware of the internal control deficiencies over financial reporting. And, if possible, implement procedures to ensure that the Association has the expertise necessary to prevent, detect and correct misstatements and be capable of drafting the financial statements, related footnote disclosures and SEFA in accordance with the cash basis method of accounting. Response: The Board believes it has personnel who possess suitable skill, knowledge, or experience to oversee services the auditor provides in assisting with financial statement presentation which requires a lower level of technical knowledge than the competence required to prepare the financial statements, related footnote disclosures and SEFA in accordance with the cash basis of accounting. If the Missouri Department of Social Services has questions regarding this plan, please telephone Darrell Moore at 573-751-0619. Sincerely yours Darrell Moore Executive Director
