Corrective Action Plan

The grant team, led by Michelle DeFrance, Senior Manager of Grant Finance (michelle.defrance@upbring.org) has implemented personal calendar reminders to ensure that the mistake is not repeated. Additionally, the finance department led by Chad Seveland, CFO (chad.seveland@upbring.org) has created a deadlines calendar that is shared with the entire finance team. We feel that these two actions will support the team and ensure future compliance. These steps have been completed.
