Emergency Solutions Grant – Assistance Listing No. 14.231 Recommendation: We recommend that management implement formal procurement policies requiring periodic reassessment of vendors used in federally funded programs, particularly when new grant awards are received or grant periods change. This should include evaluating whether the original procurement method remains appropriate, performing updated cost or price analyses as necessary, and conducting and documenting periodic suspension and debarment checks (e.g., SAM verification). Additionally, management should establish oversight controls to ensure procurement compliance and vendor eligibility are maintained throughout the lifecycle of vendor relationships in accordance with 2 CFR §200.318–200.320 and §200.214. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Avivo is in the process of updating its procurement policy and processes to include annual reviews of ongoing vendor contracts that will assess the appropriateness of the original procurement conditions and determine if updates or new analyses are required. Reviews will be signed off by the staff with contracting authority at the time of review; and if warranted, the appropriate staff will undertake new cost analyses, complete the documentation, and save in a shared repository that relevant departments will have access to. Program leadership is working with the appropriate administrative departments to develop the necessary processes for periodic review and the collection/storage of documentation around the periodic review process. The Accounting department has added a system-wide debarment check of all active vendors in the 3rd quarter of each year and will add any new vendors to this schedule regardless of when they were originally added to the vendor payment system. This ensures that all vendors are re-checked for debarment and suspension at minimum of one time annually.

Finding Reference Number: 2025-003 – Internal Control over Compliance in Relation to Procurement Suspension and Debarment Description of Finding: This is a new finding. Upon review of the town’s Bid Ordinance and Charter, a policy could not be found that determines whether a vendor for goods and services was either suspended or debarred from receiving or participating in federal awards, which is required as part of the 2025 Uniform Guidance related to Federal Programs. Additionally, it could not be determined whether any suspension or debarment review had been made and documented. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: Concur. Corrective Action: The town will update the Town Bid Ordinance to include the policy that mandates that before any contract or purchase order is awarded using federal funds, staff must verify the vendor’s eligibility status via the federal System for Award Management (SAM.gov). The Town will also update its Policy and Procedures manual to require a printed or digital SAM.gov search certificate to be attached to the procurement file as auditable evidence of the verification. Projected Completion Date: December 31, 2026

Finding Reference Number: 2025-002 – Internal Control over Compliance in Relation to Period of Performance Requirements Description of Finding: This is a new finding. For four of the seven projects reported under the Federal Program COVID-19 – Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF), totaling $204,862, documentation that the signed and accepted quote was sent back to the vendor by the program obligation deadline of December 31,2024 could not be located. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: Nonconcur. Corrective Action: For each of these projects, fully detailed quotes incorporating specific scopes of work, pricing, and binding terms and conditions were executed (signed) by authorized Town officials on or before the December 31, 2024 obligation deadline. Additionally, work or deliverables were performed in accordance with these signed terms without dispute from either party, further proving mutual intent and the existence of a binding agreement. the existence of a binding agreement.

Finding Reference Number: 2025-001 – Internal Control over Compliance in Relation to Reporting Requirements Description of Finding: This is a new finding. For one of the seven projects reported under the Federal Program COVID-19 – Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF), the total cumulative expenditures did not match the current period expenditures. The total cumulative expenditures reported were $295,205, but the current period expenditures reported were $264,767, a difference of $30,438 Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: Partially Concur. Corrective Action: Our preliminary review indicates the discrepancy stems from the prior administration’s specific methodology and interpretation of reporting requirements, rather than a substantive reporting error. The report in question covered the period of January 2025-March 2025. The expenditures totaling $30,438 were related to Q4 2024, and documentation indicates it was the previous administration’s intention to capture the current period expenditures (Q1 2025) versus the full fiscal year. To eliminate confusion, the Finance Department is establishing a formalized Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) that outlines the reporting requirements for these projects. Projected Completion Date: December 31, 2026

Corrective Action Plan: To address the documentation deficiency related to the application of internal controls for sliding fee scale eligibility determinations, Partnership Community Health Center will reinforce and monitor the following ongoing practices: 1. Staff Training: Ongoing and refresher training is provided to all staff responsible for processing sliding fee scale applications. Training emphasizes the importance of documenting each step in the eligibility review and approval process. 2. Checklist Utilization: Staff continue to use the established checklist for each sliding fee scale application, ensuring all required steps in the eligibility review and approval process are documented, initialed, and dated. 3. Weekly Audits: Patient Services and Outreach Managers conduct regular weekly audits of a sample of sliding fee scale applications to verify that documentation of internal control procedures is consistently maintained. Any identified issues are addressed promptly with targeted corrective actions as needed. 4. Ongoing Monitoring: Results of the weekly audits are reviewed during monthly compliance meetings to ensure that corrective actions are implemented and sustained. Additional Context: This was an isolated case involving a staff member who was in training at the time of the incident and is no longer with the organization.

Child and Parent Services, Inc. Corrective Action Plan Audit year ended: December 31, 2025 Federal Agency: Department of Health and Human Services Federal Program: Temporary Assistance for Needy Families ALN: 93.558 Federal Award Numbers and Years: 46329; October 1, 2020 – September 30, 2026 Name and address of independent public accounting firm: Kruggel, Lawton & Company, LLC 317 W. Franklin St Elkhart, IN 46517 Description of Finding: Finding #: 2025-001 Out of a sample of 40 home visit notes, one lacked written evidence of supervisor approval. The grant is billed per family served based on completing various activities, including home visits. Under 2 CFR 200.303, the Organization is required to establish, document and maintain a system of effective internal control over federal awards to ensure that home visits occur and that the grant is billed only for families receiving services. Program supervisors failed to follow internal procedures to timely document review of home visits performed. The Organization could bill the grant without verification that a home visit occurred. We recommend that qualified personnel review the record of home visits within 30 days so that evidence of the approval is captured before lockdown occurs. Corrective Action Plan: Internal controls were immediately adjusted to ensure that supervisors review and document approval on each home visit prior to the lockdown date in the system. Supervisors will continue to meet weekly with each home visitor where they discuss each family being served and all activities that have taken place. The program will implement training for supervisors by August 31, 2026 to ensure that visit notes are approved within 45 days of the visit date and that a note is added in the system if the review is done after the 30-day lockdown period. Additionally, procedures will be implemented by August 31, 2026 for the Program Director to review a report of home visits lacking supervisor approval each month. The Program Director will follow up with the supervisors to resolve any unapproved visits identified in the monthly report.
