2022.002: Activities Allowed or Unallowed, Allowable Costs/Cost Principles United States Department of Health and Human Services Family Planning Services Assistance Listing No.93.217 Federal Award Number: FPHPA006525 Federal Award Year: 2022 Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency Finding: As of December 31, 2022, the Organization provided health care services to 2,964 patients, however the reimbursement request was for 3,648 patients.

Item 2022-001 (Recurring): Improving Internal Controls over Reimbursement Requests Criteria: 2 CFR 200.303 requires that internal control must provide reasonable assurance that the Center complies with the requirements of the Uniform Guidance and its grant agreements. In the context of reporting to granting agencies, internal control must be established to ensure that reports are submitted accurately and timely. Condition: For the fiscal year under audit, reimbursement requests were prepared and submitted to the granting agency by a single individual who also prepares the accounting records from which the requests are prepared. Cause: The Center has not adopted control activities over the reimbursement request process, such as segregation of duties or secondary review. Effect: Reimbursement requests could be sent to the granting agency with errors and omissions or not on time. Recommendation: We recommend that the Center segregate the duty of submission of the reports to another individual not involved with preparation of accounting records or the reports themselves to allow for secondary review. PERSON RESPONSIBLE FOR CORRECTION ACTION: Aleigh Ascherl, Executive Director CORRECTIVE ACTION PLANNED: The Center has implemented controls and taken steps to ensure a secondary review is in place. ANTICIPATED COMPLETION DATE: September 30, 2023

CORRECTIVE ACTION ITEM 2022-001: SEGREGATION OF DUTIES Classes of financial transactions have been segregated to the extent possible among the existing employees. However, because of the limited number of employees involved in the accounting and bookkeeping functions, a corrective action plan to remedy the lack of segregation of duties is not cost justified. Rather, each level of management, the Board of Directors and Administrator, are aware of the concept of "segregation of duties" and are also aware of potential problems that may occur when accounting and bookkeeping duties cannot be segregated. Because there is awareness, each level of management is charged with the responsibility to follow-up on any circumstances or transactions that they perceive to be unusual.

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN February 27, 2023 Federal Audit Clearinghouse 1201 E. 10th Street Jeffersonville, IN 47132 El Hogar del Nino (FEIN 36-2749858) respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended June 30, 2022. Our independent public accounting firm is: Desmond & Ahern, Ltd 10827 S. Western Avenue Chicago, IL 60643 Phone: 773-779-4720 Audit Period: July 1, 2021 through 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. 2022-002 Allowable Costs/Cost Principles Criteria: Reports reflecting the distribution of activity of each employee must be maintained for all staff members whose compensation is charged, in whole or in part, directly to awards, in accordance with Cost Principles for Non-Profit Organizations (2 CFR Part 230.8). Charges to Federal awards must also be supported by a system of internal control which provides reasonable assurance that the charges are accurate, allowable, and properly allocated. These records must also support the distribution of the employee's salary or wages among specific activities or cost objectives if the employee works on more than one Federal award; a Federal award and non-Federal award; an indirect cost activity and a direct cost activity; two or more indirect activities which are allocated using different allocation bases; or an unallowable activity and a direct or indirect cost activity. Condition: The Organization provided time records that account for the number of hours worked by the selected employees and the departments employees are charged. The Organization is using projected salaries including vacant positions in order to calculate their full-time equivalent rate to be used for administrative allocations and not using actual time. We noted that the expenses are not being properly tracked by federal grant within the general ledger properly to show expenses are not being allocated to multiple grants. Cause: The Organization asserts that time records are consistently maintained to support the allocation of staff time to different functions however, budget estimates are used to support for charges to Federal awards. Effect: Budget estimates (i.e., estimates determined before the services are performed) alone, do not qualify as support for charges to Federal awards. Questioned Costs: None. Recommendation: We again recommend that quarterly recaps of the time sheets be done and that the time analysis be compared to the actual percent being allocated. If necessary, the projected allocation percentages, including full time equivalents, should be changed to reflect the actual time spent as required under 2 CFR 230. Also, the previous quarter should also be adjusted if the revised percentages would cause the financials to be materially misstated. We further again recommend that all employees receive additional training on filling out time sheets and that supervisors receive written procedures on reviewing the time sheets before approving to ensure that they are properly completed. With regards to allocations to awards, we recommend that the Organization properly allocate expenses within the general ledger to reflect the actual expenditures submitted for reimbursement and to ensure no expenses are being reimbursed from multiple grants. Corrective Action Planned: El Hogar del Nino will strengthen its internal controls. An expense allocation method will be developed that will more closely reflect the benefit each funding source receives from the expense and is supportable either by an amendable allocation method such as, real time tracking of time, number of students served or square footage to name a few possible examples. Where estimates are used in budgeting, quarterly after the fact adjustment will be made when there is a material variance from budget. El Hogar del Nino plans to correct this issue by June 30, 2023. Paul DiCaro (CFO Consultant) is responsible for correcting this issue. Paul can be contacted at (224) 229-8250. Sincerely, Paul DiCaro CFO Consultant

Responsible Official: Paula Strickland, Secretary-Treasurer The expenditure of the American Rescue Plan Act funds is uncharted territory for everyone. We did not intend to circumvent the bid law or federal procurement regulations. Our objective was only to provide funds to the entities who need it. When we realized we needed assistance, we engaged a consultant to assist us in managing the funds . Unfortunately, this was after the expenditure of funds referenced in the funding. In the future, we will seek the advice of consultants before any action is taken. We will revise our policies to reflect this change.
