Finding Text

The Organization did not submit the Data Collection Form and reporting packages to the FAC within the required timeframe. This failure to meet the deadline constitutes a significant deficiency in internal controls, as it delays the required reporting and could impact the federal oversight of program funds.

Corrective Action Plan

The Organization has begun implementing the above-mentioned recommendations. The Organization will ensure that it has a working compliance calendar to assist in meeting the reporting deadline. Additionally, the Organization has engaged the audit firm for their upcoming fiscal year-end, and the audit firm has put it on its calendar to begin the audit process well in advance. The Organization’s board of directors has agreed to oversee the auditing and reporting processes to a greater extent. With these actions, the Organization expects to comply with the Uniform Guidance for single audits deadline for the fiscal year end June 30, 2025. Mr. Benjamin Klein, executive director, has been designated to monitor the plan of corrective action for this finding. He can be reached at 845-354-9500.
