As requested, the New Mexico Coalition to End Homelessness has completed its corrective action plan for the audit findings in the 2022 fiscal year annual audit report. We have reviewed the findings and have made a corrective action plan to address each of the findings with completion dates. 2022-002?PREPARATION OF SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AWARDS Federal Agency: All presented in the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards. Program Name: All presented in the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards. Assistance Listing Nos. and Program Expenditures: All presented in Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards. Award Number and Program Award Year: All presented in Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards. Compliance Requirement: Other ? Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards preparation Type of Finding: E Questioned Costs: None Statement of Condition While conducting the audit, the following was reviewed; the Coalition?s Federal grants report for the fiscal year and identified the federal grants, Assistance Listing # (AL#) and the amounts of the federal expenditures and all of the other items required to properly present the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA). The finance staff of the Coalition confirm the correctness of the SEFA. Despite the confirmation of accuracy, additional federal expenditures and grouping of grant expenditures were identified after several reviews of the SEFA. Criteria 2 CFR 200.510 indicates that the auditee must prepare a schedule of expenditures of Federal awards (SEFA) for the period covered by the auditee?s financial statements which must include the total Federal awards expended as determined in accordance with 2 CFR 200.502 Basis for Determining Federal Awards Expended. Per 2 CFR 200.502 the determination of when a Federal award is expended should be based on when the activity related to the Federal award occurs. Generally, the activity pertains to events that require the non-Federal entity to comply with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of Federal awards, such as expenditure/expense transactions associated with awards. In addition, 2 CFR Part 200.303 requires the program establish and maintain effective internal controls over Federal awards that provides reasonable assurance of compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of Federal awards. Effect Without an established process governed by effective internal controls, the Coalition may not prevent or detect material misstatements on its SEFA in a timely manner. In addition, the errors could result in improper selections of major program(s) for the single audit and a substandard single audit. Cause Historically, the Coalition has requested the auditor assist in identifying accruals related to federal grant expenditures as the organization has maintained these records on a cash basis. As the organization has taken more responsibility on maintaining its federal grant expenditures on an accrual basis, an incomplete SEFA has been provided. Recommendation It is recommended the Coalition prepare the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and submit this to the auditor for testing. The SEFA should include the name of the grant, name of grantor, the AL #, the pass-through number if applicable and a reconciliation of the federal revenues and expenditures to the Coalition?s general ledger. The Coalition staff should perform more detailed reviews of the reports to ensure they properly reflect grant receipts and expenditures. This review should be performed by someone other than the preparer and should include documented evidence of agreeing the reported data to the accounting records. We further recommend training for those individuals involved in the preparation and review of the reports to ensure they are fully aware of the requirements. View of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: The corrective Action Plan will be carried out in the 2023 Fiscal Year and information will be given to the auditors when requested for the 2023 Audit. The Coalition will ensure that all information needed for the SEFA is kept and entered accurately. When the fiscal year closes out, the Coalition will provide the auditors with a test SEFA to confirm that the information we are collecting throughout the year and are asserting are the correct numbers for our federal grants, is indeed the correct information. Corrective Action Plan Timeline: Completed by October 31, 2023 (Final copy of the SEFA will not be given to the auditors until requested for the 2023 Audit) Designation Of Employee Position Responsible For Meeting Deadline: Executive Director, Monet Silva will oversee this project and work closely with the auditors to make sure that the information saved and shared is correct. Thank you, Monet Silva Executive Director

This finding relates to the preparation of the SEFA for the disclosure of the loan balances under the Company?s Railroad Rehabilitation & Improvement Financing (RRIF) loan. In the initial version of the SEFA, Amtrak did not reduce the audit period loan balance by the FY21 loan repayment. An updated version of the SEFA corrected the balance presented. The presentation on the SEFA of the balance of the RRIF loan has specific federal regulation requirements. Amtrak will review and update its SEFA Preparation Guide to ensure full compliance with 2 CFR Part 200 specifically for presentation of the RRIF loan balance. Amtrak will also consider providing training to key grants management personnel on an annual basis to keep them up to date with federal regulations. The contact for this item is Lucia Butts, AVP Funding and Grants. The Company anticipates that the updated procedures and training will remediate this finding in the fiscal year ending September 30, 2023 and beyond.

Inaccurate Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (The SEFA) Personnel Responsible for Corrective Action: Roxy Custer, Accounting Manager Anticipated Completion Date: December 31, 2023 Corrective Action Plan Broomfield agrees with the auditors? recommendation to continue working and strengthen internal controls by implementing additional training and oversight of personnel to ensure the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) accurately reflects federal expenditures for the fiscal year. Staff will continue to map the respective Assistance Listing Number (ALN) numbers to align with the corresponding project codes within the financial system. The Accounting division will ensure that employees responsible for preparing and reviewing the SEFA receive additional training and oversight so they understand the reporting requirements outlined in the Uniform Guidance.

Management agrees with this finding and is in the process of developing internal controls to ensure timely and appropriate actions are made on the deficiency noted.

2022-008 Inadequate Schedule of Federal Expenditures Reporting ? Assistance Listing No. 84.063, 84.268 Recommendation: We recommend the College design controls to ensure an adequate review process is in place to ensure compliance with reporting requirements. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: CFO prepared the FY 21 SEFA in advance of the 3/31/2022 Single Audit deadline. CFO will prepare the FY 22 SEFA in advance of the 3/31/2023 Single Audit deadline.

ACT FOR ALEXANDRIA MANAGEMENT CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN For the Year Ended December 31, 2022 TO: MARCUM LLP 1899 L Street NW, Suite 850 Washington, DC 20036 Finding 2022-001: Revenue Recognition ? Conditional Contributions; Finding 2022-002: SEFA Preparation Condition and Context: During our audit, we identified a conditional contribution that ACT had recorded as revenue upon receipt of the advanced funds and before the applicable barrier to recognition had been satisfied. In addition, the full amount of advanced funds was presented on the schedule of expenditures of federal awards (SEFA). As a result, net assets without donor restrictions were overstated in the financial statements and expenditures were overstated on the SEFA. Recommendation: We recommend management review policies and procedures over contributions received to ensure timely and effective review for any barriers to recognition and over preparation of the SEFA to ensure completeness and accuracy of the SEFA. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: ACT agrees with the finding and the auditors? recommendation. One ACT?s fiscal sponsorship funds received advance payments of conditional awards. This is a rare circumstance. As a result, there was a learning curve on our part related to when fiscal sponsorship fund revenue should be recognized related to conditional award advances. Going forward, we will ensure that fiscal sponsorship fund conditional awards are reported as revenue and expense only once barriers are fully satisfied. This will allow for accurate reporting for both financial statement and SEFA purposes.

Finding 2022-006: Federal Financial Reporting Requirements (Significant Deficiency) Information on the Federal Program: U.S. Department of State ALN 19.040 Criteria or Specific Requirement: Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Section 200.303(b) requires non-federal entities to establish and maintain effective internal control over federal awards that provide reasonable assurance that the non-federal entity is managing federal awards in compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and terms and conditions of the federal award. CFR Section 200.502(a) states that the determination of when a federal award is expended should be based on when the activity related to the federal award occurs. CFR Section 200.510 states that the auditee must prepare a schedule of expenditures of federal awards for the period covered by the auditee's financial statements which must include the total federal awards expended as determined in accordance with CFR Section 200.502. Condition: The schedule of expenditures of federal awards for the year ended December 31, 2022, did not originally include indirect costs totaling $43,632. Cause: FCE's management prepared the schedule of expenditures of federal awards using only direct costs. However, FCE had applied the 10-percent de minimis indirect cost rate when submitting its financial reports. Effect or Potential Effect: The exclusion of indirect costs caused inaccurate amounts to be reported in the SEFA at the start of the audit. This could have caused an inaccurate major program determination. Recommendation: FCE should implement a process for preparing the SEFA that includes comparing amounts reported in the SEFA to amounts included in financial reports of expenditures that are submitted to federal agencies. Action Taken: FCE acknowledges the importance of proper Federal Financial Reporting. FCE will develop and implement formal accounting policies and procedures to ensure that Federal Financial Requirements are met. These will include the steps to follow for preparation of the SEFA, including comparing amounts reported in the SEFA to amounts included in financial reports of expenditures that are submitted to Federal agencies.

Audit Period: Fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 The findings from the June 30, 2022 schedule of findings and questioned costs are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the numbers assigned in the schedule of findings and questioned costs. Findings - Financial Statement Audit MATERIAL WEAKNESS None Reported SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY None Reported Findings - Federal Award Programs Audit MATERIAL WEAKNESS None Reported SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY None Reported Water and Waste Systems -ALN: 10.760 Finding: Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Preparation Recommendation: Procedures should be implemented to ensure completion of an entry to the Schedule of Federal Expenditures of Federal Awards to achieve a reliable reporting of total expenditures for an audit period. Action Taken: We acknowledge our responsibility to present the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and related notes in accordance with Uniform Guidance requirements. To ensure future implementation of this requirement, the City of Cave Spring will record all expenditures on the schedule of federal expenditures.

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022 Finding No. 2022-002: Incomplete Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards- Material Weakness and Material Noncompliance Finding: During our audit, we identified a grant that is required to comply with the applicable requirements of 2 CFR Part 200 and thus should have been included in the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards. Once this grant was properly included, the Organization exceeded $750,000 in qualifying federal expenditures thus meeting the requirement for a Uniform Guidance audit to be conducted. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: Management has hired a Director of Grants Financial Management who is heading a team to ensure effective management and compliance with all awards in the agency. In addition, management has acquired an award management system and implemented new processes to identify Federal awards. These processes consist of (1) clearly identifying Federal awards on the new Grant Code Form, (2) conducting new award kick-off meetings within the Awards Management, Budget, and Compliance team, and (3) tracking all awards on an award and contracts matrix, as well as in the new awards management software system. For each new award, a Grant Code Form is created. The form allows the Awards Management, Budget, and Compliance team to direct the Accounting team to create a grant code for tracking purposes in the accounting financial system. When the Awards Management and Budget team complete the form, the grant will be clearly identified as a federal grant. In addition, when KIND receives a new award, the Awards Management, Budget, and Compliance team conduct kick-off meetings within the team to discuss award financial, programmatic and compliance requirements. During this meeting the team completes an awards summary template that clearly identifies an award as a Federal award and any related compliance and other requirements. In addition to the processes mentioned, the Awards Management, Budget and Compliance team has created a new contracts and awards tracking matrix. The awards tracking matrix identifies Federal grants, along with any related award requirements and other identifying information. This matrix is maintained and updated by the Awards Management, Contracts and Compliance Officer and reviewed by the Director, Grants Financial Management on a regular basis. The review includes existing procedures related to awards management and monitoring of processes. This is on-going and already in progress. In addition to the above-mentioned processes KIND will do the following: continuously review existing processes around clearly identifying Federal awards and make adjustments to strengthen internal controls as needed; review and discuss with the awards management software vendor, additional improvements that can be made to the system to better identify and report Federal awards and review the current awards matrix and make additional improvements that will better identify and track Federal awards. Name and Person Responsible: Rochelle Quillman, Director of Grants Financial Management Expected Completion Date: October 31, 2023

Name and address of independent public accounting firm: One River CPAs 46 FirstPark Drive, Oakland, ME 04963 FINDING ? FINANCIAL STATEMENT AUDIT None FINDING ? FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAMS AUDIT U.S. Department of Health and Human Services 2022-001 Noncompliance and Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance: Requests required to complete the audit were not submitted within sufficient time to allow for audit and reporting prior to the deadline. The following errors and missing required elements were noted and corrected as a result of auditing procedures on the SEFA: ? Expenditures under agreement MHC-22-322B under CFDA 93.665 were not included. ? Expenditures under agreement CBH-22-1003A under CFDA 93.958 were not included. ? Expenditures under Period 4 of Provider Relief Funds (PRF) were included in error. ? There were two instances of COVID-19 programs that did not include the appropriate prefix. ? Subtotals were not included for the following CFDA numbers 93.958; 93.104; and 93.243. ? Expenditures under agreement CDM-21-4462A under CFDA 93.243 were shown included under CFDA 93.959 in error. Recommendations: Management should seek additional training for the fiscal department on preparation of the SEFA standards. In addition, review processes over the SEFA should be strengthened. Both the preparer and reviewer should have a clear understanding of the required minimum elements. As part of the review, all required minimum elements should be vouched to original source documents including copies of awards, reporting, and the trial balance. Any inconsistencies should be resolved before beginning the audit. The compliance supplement should be reviewed for reporting guidance on new Federal programs. Responsible Person for Corrective Action: Timothy D. Floyd, Chief Financial Officer Management will seek additional training in preparation of the SEFA and the applicable standards. The anticipated completion date for this corrective action is December 31, 2023. If the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has questions regarding this plan, please contact Timothy D. Floyd, Chief Financial Officer at 207-626-3448 or tfloyd@crisisandcounseling.org. Sincerely, Timothy D. Floyd, Chief Financial Officer

Finding Reference Number: 2022-001 Description of Finding: The auditee omitted a federal award under SEMI Foundation with current period expenditures of $240,245 in its preparation of the 2022 SEFA. The SEFA was, therefore, incomplete and impacted the federal audit applicability determination as well as the auditors? major program determination. Corrective Action: The Organization concurs with this finding and provided the current period expenditures of federal awards on a consolidated basis. The organization provided specific information to support its position. We misinterpreted the reporting obligation for the award on the SEFA. We initially planned to first report the award when cumulative expenditures recognized under the award reached the reporting threshold on a stand-alone basis. We stand corrected on our understanding of its obligation to report on the SEFA report and evaluated the consolidated federal expenditures of all awards and their lifetime value against reporting threshold. Each award included in the evaluation that meets or exceeds the reporting threshold is to be first reported in the year of grant. In compliance with 2 CFR 200.514, we recognize that the SEFA report must be looked at the group level and cover the entire operations of SEMI and be presented in relation to the financial statements as a whole. We have coordinated with the appropriate staff to update their understanding and have reinforced our report review process accordingly. In addition, we will include this information in our periodic staff trainings to ensure future compliance. Name of Responsible Person: Kevin Bauer Anticipated Completion Date: The Organization anticipates completing the corrective action by July 31, 2023.

Condition: During the audit, significant adjustments were identified and proprosed (which were approved and posted by management) to adjust the College's general ledger to the appropriate balances.

Department: Grants & Finance Condition: The District did not record expenditures to the 2020-21 or 2021-22 grants in a timely manner, and internal controls over expenditures charged were not in place throughout the period during which such charges were incurred. Expenditures reported for the Title II, Part A grant in their submission to the Michigan Department of Education?s Financial Information Database (FID) did not agree with expenditures reported in the schedule of expenditures of Federal awards (SEFA) for the same period, as the District did not provide accurate information to the auditors nor did they prepare an accurate SEFA. Corrective Action: Internal controls have been implemented over the purchasing process, all grant expenditures are approved by the Grant Coordinator and Teaching and Learning Department. Grant Coordinator meets on a regular basis with the finance department to ensure that all grant related expenditures are being processed with the correct code and in the correct manner. Any discrepancies that arise are addressed immediately. Person(s) Responsible for Executing Corrective Action: ? Grant Coordinator ? Grant Accountant ? Chief of Teaching and Learning ?

As a result of the prior year omissions discovered during the current year SEFA preparation and Single Audit, the University performed a reconciliation (prior to issuance of the audit report) of the PRF payments reflected in the HRSA reporting portal systemwide. The reconciliation did not identify any misstatements other than those described in the finding. The University of California Office of the President (UCOP) will work with campuses to fully reconcile PRF for the fiscal year 2023. Also beginning in 2023, campuses and medical centers will be assigned responsibility for reviewing and signing off on their respective final SEFAs, inclusive of HEERF, PRF, and any other atypical federal programs that are not captured in the campuses? financial system (e.g., those for which there is not expense recognition in a federal fund). The Systemwide Controller will also be included in the review process and signoff on the final SEFA reports. Beginning in FY 2024, the University will implement more comprehensive financial reporting controls as follows: ? Interim SEFA reports, inclusive of atypical programs, will be prepared centrally and distributed to campuses for review and alignment with campus records. Campus management will be tasked with the responsibility for overall review and signoff for both interim and final SEFA reports. ? The Systemwide Controller will also be included in the review process by performing an overall review and signoff for the final SEFA report.
