Recommendation We recommend the District implement documented daily edit checks reconciling meal counts to attendance records and maintain records of this review. For food inventory, the District should establish a formal inventory system, including perpetual inventory records, monthly physical counts, and supervisory review. Staff involved in Child Nutrition operations should receive training on USDA and federal compliance requirements Management Response Corrective Action The Food Service Director will implement the federally required daily edit check process. This will include comparing daily meal counts against the attendance and enrollment figures to ensure that claims do not exceed the number of students present. Any discrepancies identified during this process will be investigated and documented prior to submission of the monthly claim. The District will also change the tracking of meals served by using an official meal tracking device or by having students use their badge/ID cards to get a more accurate meal count each day. The District has a formal inventory process for all food service supplies including canned goods, dry goods, and freezer items. This system tracks items from receipt through consumption. The District conducts monthly physical inventory counts of all food service assets. These counts are reconciled and any significant variances are reviewed by the Food Service Director and reported to the Business Manager. The District will ensure that all nutrition staff is trained on these procedures as well. Due Date of Completion: June 30, 2026 Responsible Party Business Manager, Food Service Director

Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: WAU agrees with the recommendation to update our formal process to identify and maintain an inventory of data, devices, and systems that support or process customer financial aid information. While we currently use the Spiceworks Inventory System to track hardware and software assets and Google Workspace to manage user cloud access and data storage, we acknowledge that a formal, documented inventory process covering all required categories has not yet been fully established. The IT Director has been assigned to develop and document this process within 30 days. We acknowledge this finding and the associated risk arising from the absence of an independent risk assessment. As of March 25, 2026, the University has engaged TeamLogic Cybersecurity to strengthen our managerial, technical, and operational controls and to (1) develop and document a formal, GLBA aligned risk assessment process; (2) conduct annual independent, comprehensive risk assessment of our information systems and data environment; and (3) provide written findings and recommendations. Based on these results, we will implement appropriate safeguards, and institutionalize an annual risk assessment cycle to ensure that risks are consistently identified, assessed, mitigated, and monitored in accordance with GLBA requirements.

JCCA CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN March 23, 2026 Health Resources and Services Administration Jewish Child Care Association of New York (d/b/a JCCA) and Affiliated Organization respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended June 30, 2025. ____________________________________________________________________________________ CohnReznick LLP 1301 Avenue of the Americas New York, NY 10019 Audit Period: June 30, 2025 The findings from the June 30, 2025 schedule of findings and questioned costs are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the number assigned in the schedule. FINDINGS – FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDINGS Finding 2025-001 – Account Analyses MATERIAL WEAKNESS Recommendation We recommend that the Agency implement policies, procedures and controls to ensure that all accounting records are analyzed and reconciled on a monthly basis. Action Taken BTQ Financial is spearheading a comprehensive stabilization project to refine the chart of accounts and reconstruct historical tracking for the permanent endowment fund. BTQ already has in place a rigorous monthly closing schedule. This includes establishing automated reconciliation protocols for program service revenue, endowment tracking, and inter-company accounts to ensure GAAP compliance and timely board reporting. These policies, procedures, and controls to ensure that all accounting records are analyzed and reconciled on a monthly basis have already been incorporated into FY2026 monthly close process. Finding 2025-002 – Information Technology – General Control Activities SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY Recommendation We recommend the Agency follow their policy for password age. We also recommend the Agency perform a risk assessment over the information technology environment. We recommend a written risk assessment and penetration test to be performed annually and vulnerability scans to be performed quarterly. Action Taken The Agency has configured NetSuite and Active Directory to programmatically enforce password aging and complexity requirements that strictly mirror our established IT Security Policy. Furthermore, we have moved beyond interview-based assessments to an annual cadence of formal, written risk assessments and penetration testing, supported by continuous monthly vulnerability monitoring through our Security Operation Center (SOC). An interview-based risk assessment was performed in Q3 2025, and monthly vulnerability scans are managed by Arctic Wolf, our Security Operation Center (SOC) service provider. To further strengthen our posture, we will initiate an annual cadence of formal external and internal penetration tests starting in Q2-Q3 2026. FINDINGS – FEDERAL AWARDS PROGRAM AUDIT U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Unaccompanied Alien Children Program (Assistance Listing Number 93.676), FAIN # 90ZU0603, 90ZU0567, and 90ZU0536, for FY 2025 - Significant Deficiency Finding 2025-003 – Reporting Recommendation We recommend that management of the Agency implement procedures to track all federal reporting deadlines and ensure that reports are reviewed and submitted timely. This could include maintaining a centralized grant reporting calendar and implementing supervisory review prior to submission. Action Taken With the outsourcing to BTQ now fully operational, a centralized Federal Grant Reporting Calendar has been established. This calendar includes automated alerts for all 30/60/90-day deadlines. BTQ has also implemented a dual-level supervisory review process to ensure that all future reports are validated against the general ledger and submitted well in advance of federal deadlines. This protocol has been strictly applied to all federal reporting for the FY2026 cycle. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Unaccompanied Alien Children Program (Assistance Listing Number 93.676), FAIN # 90ZU0603, 90ZU0567, and 90ZU0536, for FY 2025 - Significant Deficiency Finding 2025-004 – Cash Management Recommendation We recommend that management of the Agency implement formal controls over the drawdown process that includes establishing procedures requiring documented supervisory review and approval of all drawdown requests and ensuring drawdowns are based on immediate cash needs so that federal funds are expended within a reasonable amount of time. Action Taken The Agency, in collaboration with BTQ Financial, has implemented a formalized "Drawdown Authorization Protocol." This new workflow improves upon the existing, and adds a standardized approach to every drawdown request, documented supporting schedules (showing immediate cash needs), and formal approval from BTQ’s PM, SVPF, VPF, or AVPF. This ensures a clear audit trail and prevents the accumulation of excess federal cash on hand. If the Health Resources and Services Administration has questions regarding this plan, please call Kenneth Shieh, Chief Administration Officer at (718) 747-4367. Sincerely yours, Kenneth Shieh, Chief Administrative Officer

February 27, 2026 Re: Corrective Action Plan in response to Federal Single Audit Introduction On February 27, 2026, Crowe LLP issued the Independent Auditor’s Report as required and in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Controller General. The Corrective Action Plan, submitted by the City of Richardson more specifically, responds to the Report and outlines the City’s corrective action plans to address the finding. We again thank Crowe LLP for their hard work in this matter. This single audit has and will continue to serve as a roadmap for future financial operations. Finding 2025-001: Special Tests – Wage Rate Requirements – Significant Deficiency In two out of seven selections tested for required certified payrolls for contactor or subcontractor work performed during the fiscal year end September 30, 2025, the certified payrolls were not obtained by the City until subsequent to audit fieldwork. In addition, the City did not have internal controls in place to identify that these certified payrolls were not being obtained. Response: The City acknowledges that the required supporting documentation was not available at the time compliance testwork was completed by Crowe LLP. The City recognizes its responsibility to obtain and review certified payroll records from contractors and subcontractors for all laborers working on City grant funded projects to ensure wages and fringe benefits are paid in compliance with the Davis-Bacon Act. Corrective Action Plan: The City has an established Grants Management Policy and quarterly reporting from departments stating compliance with grant requirements. To strengthen compliance and address the documentation deficiency identified in the audit finding, the City will conduct mandatory training sessions with designated grant personnel in each department to reinforce policy requirements, required documentation standards, and applicable federal and state regulations, including certified payroll monitoring requirements where applicable. Training will be completed by June 30, 2026, and will be provided annually thereafter.The City will implement a grant review process that includes a master checklist to assist departments in verifying compliance prior to processing payments. The checklist will include verification that required supporting documentation, including certified payroll records when applicable, has been received, reviewed, and approved. Implementation of this checklist will occur by March 31, 2026. A centralized electronic repository will be established to allow Finance access to grant agreements, supporting documentation and relate records maintained by City departments. This control will be implemented by March 31, 2026. Additional internal controls will be incorporated into the financial software system to ensure that all required supporting documentation is attached and reviewed prior to payment approval. This control will be implemented by March 31, 2026. The City will conduct periodic internal compliance review testing of grants, including verification of required labor compliance documentation where applicable, to confirm ongoing adherence to federal and state regulations. Pre-award and post-award meetings will be held between Finance and the respective grant departments to establish reporting parameters, documentation requirements, monitoring responsibilities and compliance expectations prior to project implementation. When bids are solicited that include grant funding, the City will continue to communicate to all prospective bidders that compliance with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations, including labor standard requirements when applicable, is a condition of award. Bid documents will include a sample copy of the U.S. Department of Labor Davis-Bacon and Related Acts Weekly Certified Payroll form. Contact Person Responsible/Anticipated Completion Date: The Finance Director is responsible for oversight of this corrective action plan, with day-to-day management and implementation delegated to the Assistant Director of Finance. Implementation of these corrective actions is scheduled to begin immediately, with full completion anticipated by June 30, 2026. Once implemented, the procedures will be monitored on an ongoing basis to ensure continued compliance and to prevent recurrence of the finding.
