Additionally, during the fiscal year the Municipality received new funds called Service of Excellence to Citizens also related to the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Program. This allocation was granted through the Puerto Rico Fiscal Agency and Financial Advisory Authority. In our Reporting Test, we evaluated six (6) reports and could not validate their submission. Auditor’s Recommendations: We recommend training for the authorized personnel who administer the program, to better understand the reporting requirements and prepare timely reports. The Municipality should establish a monitoring system to ensure compliance with requirements established by the passthrough agency such as: submitting the reports during the required time frame and where the fund expenses will be reported as incurred. This will ensure better control of the program. Corrective Action: The authorized personnel understand the reporting requirements. We are in the process of training additional personnel to have more resources to comply with all reporting requirements. The Finance Department is working with external consultants to address this situation, and be able to comply with all reports as required.

The District acknowledges the finding regarding inaccuracies in meal counts reported for the Child Nutrition Program reimbursement claims. To address this issue, the District will strengthen internal controls over the meal count reporting and claim preparation process. The food service department will ensure that daily meal count documentation is properly maintained and reconciled to the monthly claim totals prior to submission. In addition, the Director of Business Operations will implement a formal management review process prior to submission of each monthly claim for reimbursement to the Arizona Department of Education. This review will include verification that reported meal counts agree to supporting documentation and that all reconciliations have been completed and documented. Any discrepancies identified during the review will be investigated and corrected before the claim is submitted. These procedures will provide additional oversight and help ensure the District maintains compliance with federal regulations and the reporting requirements of the Child Nutrition Program. The Director of Business Operations is responsible for implementing and monitoring this correction action, which will be completed at the end of the next fiscal year.

Finding 2025-003 Duplicate expenditures charged to same grant Recommendation: We recommend the District establish and maintain proper review procedures for expenditures charged to grants prior to submission for reimbursement. Management’s View: The District will strengthen internal controls over payroll expenditures charged to federal grants by implementing a standard operating procedure that will be conducted by the Payroll Specialist of verifying payroll distribution reports, funding codes, and supporting documentation prior to submission for payment. Before each payroll is finalized, the payroll specialist will run a payroll report that will be generated and sorted by employee to verify that no duplicate charges have been applied to the same grant within the same payroll period. This review will ensure that all costs charged to federal grants during the pay period are accurate, allowable, properly coded, and not duplicated. No payroll adjustments will be keyed until timesheets have been verified against previously submitted timesheets and that they are reviewed to confirm that prior entries have not already been charged to the same grant. Additionally, a secondary review by the accountant will be conducted prior to finalizing grant-related payrolls. Effective March 1, 2026, the Payroll Accountant and Chief Financial Officer will review grant-related payroll transactions to ensure accuracy, proper funding allocation, and compliance with applicable federal requirements.

NSLDS Enrollment Reporting Student Financial Assistance Cluster – Assistance Listing No. 84.063, 84.033, 84.268, 84.007 Recommendation: We recommend the University review its reporting procedures to ensure that enrollment and program information is accurately reported to NSLDS as required by regulations. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: A complete review of CIP code usage will be reviewed and ensure that there is alignment across academics, registrar, and financial aid. The last review was done in 2024 but with changes alignment fell out of sync. We are also working with our SIS vendor, Jenzabar, to continue to identify areas where the SIS is out of sync with compliance and how best to e􀆯ectively address them if it is a data issue or an issue with internal SIS logic. We are also actively engaging with the National Student Clearinghouse to identify issues and clean them up proactively. Registrar updated internal processes to ensure enrollment status reporting aligns with NSLDS guidance by using the Date of Determination (DOD), rather than the graduation or term end date, as the exit date for graduates. This approach is consistent with federal guidance and has been implemented. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Robert Boggs, EdD, University Registrar Planned completion date for corrective action plan: 3/6/2026 for the CIP audit; 8/31/2026 for SIS and NSC; internal process changes are complete.

Finding Description: Per the VOCA contract, the grantee is required to submit quarterly fiscal and programmatic reports by the 15th calendar day of the month following the end of the quarter to the State of NJ. Testing of the compliance requirement indicated that several reports were not submitted timely. Corrective Action and Method of Implementation: The Organization is currently in a transition phase and plans to reorganize job duties and adjust staffing within the Finance Department to support the preparation and timely submission of quarterly fiscal and programmatic reports. These delays resulted from postponed contract approvals by the contracting entity, as well as staff turnover, which affected the timely filing of complete and accurate reports.

Heading Home management is in agreement with this finding. After years of turnover in key management positions steps have been taken to address staffing challenges and these positions have been successfully staffed with high-quality individuals who bring extensive knowledge and expertise to their roles. These positions include a new Chief Executive Officer, Director of Operations, Chief Financial Officer, and Director of Human Resources. To address challenges in accounting and finance Heading Home had contracted with a local CPA firm specializing in nonprofit accounting and financial reporting to assist the CFO with daily accounting tasks, the monthly close, financial reporting to management and the board of directors, and to facilitate and ensure audits are completed timely each year. The new management group is committed to maintaining a skilled and competent team in key financial roles. Due to the backlog of billings at the opening of FY24, the quarterly reports for the first quarter were submitted late. With the new staff and assistance, these billings and quarterly reports were brought current as quickly as possible. They are now current and being submitted in a timely manner. Management’s corrective action plan was fully implemented by June 30, 2025, and anticipate that there will be no further issues. Personnel responsible for ensuring implementation include Connie Chavez, Chief Executive Officer, and Debbie Brickman, Chief Financial Officer.
