In accordance with CFR §200.302 Financial Management, a non-federal entity’s financial management systems, including records documenting compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award, must be sufficient to permit the preparation of reports required by general and program-specific terms and conditions; and the tracing of funds to a level of expenditures adequate to establish that such funds have been used according to the Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. The financial management system of each non-Federal agency provide for the following: Identification, in its accounts, of all Federal awards received and expended and the Federal programs under which they were received. Accurate, current, and complete disclosure of the financial results of each Federal award or program in accordance with the reporting requirements set forth in §200.328 Financial Reporting and §200.329 Monitoring and Reporting Program Performance. Records that identify adequately the source and application of funds for federally funded activities. Effective control over, and accountability for, all funds, property, and other assets.Condition: During management’s preparation of the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA), the finance team of the Organization used a combination of cost center reports that identify Federal dollars spent throughout the year, reporting done by program management, and invoices billed to Federal agencies. The SEFA preparation and review process did not appropriately reflect total Federal Expenditures for the period covered. During our major program grant population completeness procedures, we identified expenditures of federal awards that had been excluded from the SEFA prepared by management. The SEFA, as presented in these financial statements has been adjusted to include an additional $13,012 of expenditures incurred for AL 93.391 versus what had been previously presented. Cause: Subsequent to June 30, 2023, United Way of Greater Cleveland experienced turnover in certain program management positions with the responsibility for submission and preparation of data for completion of the schedule of expenditures of federal awards (SEFA). As a result of these changes in staffing, management was unable to fully execute on its documented internal control policies regarding SEFA preparation. Accordingly, internal controls established for the review and approval of the SEFA to ensure its completeness and accuracy did not operate as designed due to personnel changes in the programmatic areas, responsible for submission of costs incurred for the SEFA. Effect: The SEFA provided for the audit was inaccurate for the reasons outlined in the condition section above. Failure to accurately report expenditures and programs on the SEFA result in audit adjustments. Questioned Costs: There are no questioned costs related to the items described above. Context: The conditions outlined above are based on our testing of the United Way of Greater Cleveland’s major programs and our overall testing of the accuracy of the SEFA. The nature of this finding is detailed in the condition section above. Repeat Finding: This is a repeat finding. Recommendation: We recommend management address the staffing considerations to ensure the documented policies and procedures can be performed as prescribed, and that policies and procedures are followed on a consistent basis. This will ensure that Federal funds are reported accurately on the SEFA.Views of Responsible Officials: United Way of Greater Cleveland’s management agrees with the finding and recommendations set forth within and has developed a corrective action.

In accordance with CFR §200.302 Financial Management, a non-federal entity’s financial management systems, including records documenting compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award, must be sufficient to permit the preparation of reports required by general and program-specific terms and conditions; and the tracing of funds to a level of expenditures adequate to establish that such funds have been used according to the Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. The financial management system of each non-Federal agency provide for the following: Identification, in its accounts, of all Federal awards received and expended and the Federal programs under which they were received. Accurate, current, and complete disclosure of the financial results of each Federal award or program in accordance with the reporting requirements set forth in §200.328 Financial Reporting and §200.329 Monitoring and Reporting Program Performance. Records that identify adequately the source and application of funds for federally funded activities. Effective control over, and accountability for, all funds, property, and other assets.Condition: During management’s preparation of the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA), the finance team of the Organization used a combination of cost center reports that identify Federal dollars spent throughout the year, reporting done by program management, and invoices billed to Federal agencies. The SEFA preparation and review process did not appropriately reflect total Federal Expenditures for the period covered. During our major program grant population completeness procedures, we identified expenditures of federal awards that had been excluded from the SEFA prepared by management. The SEFA, as presented in these financial statements has been adjusted to include an additional $13,012 of expenditures incurred for AL 93.391 versus what had been previously presented. Cause: Subsequent to June 30, 2023, United Way of Greater Cleveland experienced turnover in certain program management positions with the responsibility for submission and preparation of data for completion of the schedule of expenditures of federal awards (SEFA). As a result of these changes in staffing, management was unable to fully execute on its documented internal control policies regarding SEFA preparation. Accordingly, internal controls established for the review and approval of the SEFA to ensure its completeness and accuracy did not operate as designed due to personnel changes in the programmatic areas, responsible for submission of costs incurred for the SEFA. Effect: The SEFA provided for the audit was inaccurate for the reasons outlined in the condition section above. Failure to accurately report expenditures and programs on the SEFA result in audit adjustments. Questioned Costs: There are no questioned costs related to the items described above. Context: The conditions outlined above are based on our testing of the United Way of Greater Cleveland’s major programs and our overall testing of the accuracy of the SEFA. The nature of this finding is detailed in the condition section above. Repeat Finding: This is a repeat finding. Recommendation: We recommend management address the staffing considerations to ensure the documented policies and procedures can be performed as prescribed, and that policies and procedures are followed on a consistent basis. This will ensure that Federal funds are reported accurately on the SEFA.Views of Responsible Officials: United Way of Greater Cleveland’s management agrees with the finding and recommendations set forth within and has developed a corrective action.

United Way of Greater Cleveland is required to submit its Single Audit Report to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within 30 calendar days after the receipt of the Auditor’s report, or within nine months after the close of the Auditee’s fiscal year, whichever is earlier. Condition: Therefore, the submission to the Federal Audit Clearing House is subsequent to both 30 days from the date of the receipt of the financial statements and nine months after year end and is therefore considered a late submission. Cause: During the year ended June 30, 2023, United way of Greater Cleveland migrated general ledger financial reporting systems, which caused delays in the closing and financial audit process. Subsequent to June 30, 2023, United Way of Greater Cleveland experienced turnover in certain programmatic staff, which further delayed certain procedures related to ensuring sufficiency and accuracy of the SEFA, thus causing delays in the audit process. Effect: There was no effect due to the late submission of the report. Questioned Costs: There are no questioned costs related to the items described above. Context: The conditions outlined above are based on our testing of the United Way of Greater Cleveland’s major programs and our overall testing of the accuracy of the SEFA. The nature of this finding is detailed in the condition section above.Repeat Finding: his is not a repeat finding. Recommendation:We recommend management address the staffing considerations to ensure the documented policies and procedures can be performed as prescribed and on a timely basis to allow for prompt submission to the FAC. Views of Responsible Officials: United Way of Greater Cleveland’s management agrees with the finding and recommendations set forth within and has developed a corrective action.
2023-002 - Internal Control over Compliance and Compliance with Reporting Information on the Federal Program: United States Department of Health and Human Services Assistance Listing Numbers: 93.650 Accountable Health Communities 93.391 Activities to Support State, Tribal, Local and Territorial (STLT) Health Department Response to Public Health or Healthcare Crises 93.558 Temporary Assistance for Needy Families 93.667 Social Services Block Grant 93.738 Racial & Ethnic Approaches to Community Health; Program Solely Funded by Public Prevention Health Funds 93.044 Special Programs for the Aging, Title III, Part B, Grants for Supportive Services and Senior Centers 93.052 National Family Caregiver Support 93.268 Immunization Cooperative Agreements United States Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistance Listing Number: 14.218 Community Development Block Grants United States Department of Homeland Security Assistance Listing Number: 97.024 Emergency Food and Shelter Criteria: In accordance with CFR §200.303(a), Internal Controls, the non-federal entity must establish and maintain effective internal control over the Federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-Federal entity is managing the Federal award in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. These internal controls should be in compliance with guidance in “Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government” issued by the Comptroller General of the United States or the “Internal Control Integrated Framework”, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)…”Additionally, in accordance with CFR §200.303(a), Monitoring and reporting program performance, the non-Federal entity is responsible for oversight of the operations of the Federal award supported activities. The non-Federal entity must monitor its activities under Federal awards to assure compliance with applicable Federal requirements and performance expectations are being achieved. Monitoring by the non-Federal entity must cover each program, function or activity…”CFR Section §200.510(b) states in part: “The auditee must also 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 Basis for determining Federal awards expended.” The schedule must provide total Federal awards expended for each individual Federal program. In accordance with CFR §200.302 Financial Management, a non-federal entity's financial management systems, including records documenting compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award, must be sufficient to permit the preparation of reports required by general and program-specific terms and conditions; and the tracing of funds to a level of expenditures adequate to establish that such funds have been used according to the Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. The financial management system of each non-Federal provide for the following: Identification, in its accounts, of all Federal awards received and expended and the Federal programs under which they were received. Accurate, current, and complete disclosure of the financial results of each Federal award or program in accordance with the reporting requirements set forth in §200.328 Financial Reporting and §200.329 Monitoring and Reporting Program Performance.Records that identify adequately the source and application of funds for federally funded activities.

2023-004 Material Weakness in Internal Control and Compliance over Eligibility Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Federal Program: 93.558, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families Cluster Criteria or Specific Requirement - OMB Circular A-122, Costs Principles for Non-Profit Organizations requires specific compliance with the provisions of allowable costs and activities. The Organization is responsible for having internal controls designed to ensure compliance with this provision. Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, require that, among other things, participants in the program meet certain eligibility requirements. In compliance with 2 CFR Part 200, Subpart D, Performance and Financial Monitoring and Reporting § 200.329, financial records, supporting documents, statistical records, and all other non-federal entity records pertinent to a federal award, must be retained for a period of three years from the date of submission of the final expenditure report. Condition - During our testing of participant eligibility, we noted that certain required documentation for participation in the program had not been obtained and retained in the participant’s file. Cause - There is a lack of sufficient adherence to internal controls over document retention, independent review and approval of required items, and the organization and accuracy of supporting documentation. Effect - Lack of supporting documentation could result in the Organization being required to return funds received for providing services to ineligible participants. Additionally, the funding agency could impose compliance actions against the Organization. Questioned Costs - $180,071 Context - As part of our audit procedures, we sampled a total of 25 participants to test internal controls over compliance and compliance with the eligibility of federal awards. During our testing of participant eligibility, we noted the following deviations: - Three selections in our statistically valid sample lacked appropriate documentation to substantiate the participants’ health records were obtained within 60 days of enrollment in the program and subsequently retained by the Organization. Repeat Finding - No Recommendation - The Organization should implement controls and procedures for obtaining and retaining supporting documentation for all participants as required by the specific provisions of each contract or grant agreement pertaining to the federal program. Procedures should include the implementation of controls over document retention that would prevent acceptance into the program until all supporting documentation has been verified by an individual independent of the admission process. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions - Out of over 182 compliance records requested, the Organization was unable to provide 3 health assessments, all other requested documentation was provided. The missing health assessments were for high school students, who are not required to provide them to attend school and often do not have access to updated health assessments. We have been directed by the funding agency never to exclude these youth from participation for an inability to obtain a health assessment. BGCP has already taken steps to address these issues. The funding agency, PHMC, has begun sending monthly compliance reports. Over the last three months, we have collected 42% of missing health assessments organization-wide. Additionally, on our recent FY24 Admin review from PHMC, which included a full compliance report, all of our sites received overall scores of above 95%. We will continue to monitor compliance and follow-up with youth and families to complete needed items.

Criteria or specific requirement: 2 CFR Part 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Award requires compliance with the provisions of reporting. Specifically, per CFR 200.329(c)(1), “the non-Federal entity must submit performance reports at the interval required by the Federal awarding agency or pass-through entity to best inform improvements in program outcome and productivity…. Reports submitted quarterly or semiannual must be due no later than 30 calendar days after the reporting period.” In addition, Uniform Grant Guidance (2 CFR 200.303) requires nonfederal entities receiving Federal awards establish and maintain internal controls designed to reasonably ensure compliance with Federal laws, regulations, and program compliance requirements. Condition: During our testing, we noted some reports tested were not submitted within 30 days after the end of the quarterly reporting period. Questioned costs: None. Context: Two of eight reports tested under ALN 11.437 and two of five reports tested under ALN 11.022 were submitted 1 day after the due date. The ALN 11.437 reports related to the program quarter ended 2/28/2023 and the ALN 11.022 reports related to the program quarter ended 4/30/23. Cause: Reports were likely sent to the Grants Manager on the due date, and therefore were missed or there was not time to adequately review prior to submission by end of day. Effect: The Commission was not in compliance with submitting reports timely. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend the Commission implement stronger internal monitoring to ensure reports are completed by program managers and submitted to the Grants Manager timely to ensure ample time for internal review and upload to the Federal Agency. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.

The ALN 11.437 reports related to the program quarter ended 2/28/2023 and the ALN 11.022 reports related to the program quarter ended 4/30/23. Cause: Reports were likely sent to the Grants Manager on the due date, and therefore were missed or there was not time to adequately review prior to submission by end of day. Effect: The Commission was not in compliance with submitting reports timely. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend the Commission implement stronger internal monitoring to ensure reports are completed by program managers and submitted to the Grants Manager timely to ensure ample time for internal review and upload to the Federal Agency.
