Audit Finding Reference: 2024-002 – Head Start Cluster – ALN #93.600 Planned Corrective Action: Finance personnel who are responsible for management of Federal grants have undergone targeted training around Uniform Guidance requirements with respect to grants management and sub-recipient compliance. UWGNH also maintains an active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM). Finance personnel have recently been trained on the procedure for submitting FFATA reporting in SAM.gov and are clear on the requirements. They are aware of the requirement to report subawards of more than $30,000 from federal funds. This task has been added to the internal accounting close checklist and will be completed during any period where sub-awards have been executed. The CFO will oversee the implementation of these corrective actions and monitor ongoing compliance.

Management Responses: We acknowledge that prior to this audit, CASA relied on summary-level expense reports from subrecipients under the PCCD grant and did not consistently verify underlying invoices. The established oversight also included the following efforts: 1) the individual previously responsible for invoicing did review submissions for reasonableness against the approved budget, 2) subrecipients were advised to maintain detailed back-up for all expenses, and 3) the Coalition Director regularly visited subrecipient sites to observe work being completed and to meet and observe personnel covered by the grant. However, we acknowledge this process did not meet the full requirements of the Uniform Guidance. While prior audits were not performed under Government Auditing Standards , management notes that the agency has received federal funding since 2016 with no history of previous management-related findings. The identified grant in this finding was a pilot project and the first time the agency has managed subrecipients. Corrective Actions Already Taken: CASA has engaged a new contracted accounting firm with a wider breadth of experience and expertise. CASA has completed an internal restructuring to provide increased opportunity for oversight and review of contracted financial services. CASA has adopted a new review protocol requiring verification of all supporting documentation for subrecipient reimbursements. The Operations Manager now performs a detailed review of invoices, approvals, and alignment with allowable costs prior to releasing funds. Planned Actions: Subrecipient Monitoring Policy: CASA will implement a policy immediately that includes: A standardized invoice review checklist (verifying vendor, date, amount, and allowability). Documentation of management approvals and sign-offs. Monitoring visits or virtual reviews for subrecipients by Coalition Director or Operations Director. Communication: CASA will issue written guidance to all subrecipients outlining documentation requirements and timelines.
