Finding Text

Recommendation: The Organization should implement policies and procedures that would guide personnel to prepare timely for the Single Audit, conduct the audit earlier in the year, and submit the report no later than nine months after year end.

Corrective Action Plan

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The Organization, unfortunately, did not meet the deadline due to a few factors that played a role in the delay of the Single Audit report submission. The Organization experienced a short staffed accounting department, and the original part time staff consultant who was designated to support the Single Audit this year was unable to provide the support needed. The Organization was dependent on this support to complete the audit. As a result, accounting staff was re-shifted to complete the Single Audit. The Organization completed the Single Audit in October 2023. In addition, the Organization plans to have trained staff complete the Single Audit with more advanced planning time in order to avoid late submissions. Name of Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Plan: Denise Villamil, Executive Director. Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2024
