Condition: Per the Florida Department of Health Child Care Food Program (CCFP) Procedure Manual for Sponsors of Day Care Homes, sponsors are required to perform at least three monitoring reviews of any providers operating for 9 to 12 months during the federal fiscal year. Per the Procedure Manual, sponsors must maintain all completed Provider Review Forms and supporting documentation for a minimum of three fiscal years past the current fiscal year, or until all outstanding audit issues are resolved.
Criteria: Out of nine Child Care Center and Home providers tested, the third monitoring procedure for three providers was not completed.

Effect: The Organization could face corrective action from the grantor or be penalized by having to repay grant reimbursements.
Recommendation: We recommend the Organization follow their established grant compliance procedures to avoid further non-compliance with other grants.
