Corrective Action Plan

Catholic Charities had implemented procedures to ensure that monthly expenditure reports were filed by the required deadline of the 15th day of the following month. In the following fiscal year, all grant reports were submitted on time, with the exception of the first few months of the beginning of the grant year when the required reporting templates were not yet available from the administering agency. These programs have since been closed; therefore, no ongoing corrective action or monitoring is required.
