Corrective Action Plan

Since March 2020, there has been significant challenges with some key staff members of The Balm In Gilead. After the hardships that the Fiscal Director endured after the passing of his mother and the changes that took place as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, it became evident the Fiscal Director could not maintain the deadlines and maintain daily operations in the accounting department as outlined by the accounting policies, which is necessary for an effective and efficiently managed accounting department. Because of the delays in the audit process as well as constantly missed audit deadlines, the organization decided to relieve the Fiscal Director of his duties as of October 2021. The Balm In Gilead is currently restructuring the accounting department and putting the proper accounting team in place to assure the current internal control processes are performed according to the accounting policies in place to assure all regulatory deadlines are met timely. The accounting staff hired during fiscal year 2020 will remain. The Board of Directors will support and provide guidance as the accounting department is restructured in order to meet the organization?s needs.

Corrective Action Plan

Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: The FY2018 audit report outlined in detail the extenuating personal challenges for the Deputy Director and the Fiscal Director in FY2019, which severely impacted the operations of The Balm In Gilead. These challenges were not resolved until early FY2020. Very shortly after the return to the work of the fiscal and deputy directors, the Balm office was evacuated to remote (home) facilities due to COVID-19. This created additional delays as our IT systems had to be upgraded for security purposes as the organization and staff adapted to the new in-home working environment. The Balm In Gilead hired an additional full-time accounting staff in late FY2020 to ensure an appropriate allocation of responsibilities exist to support more consistency in the application of the accounting policies. The organization will continue to follow the updated internal policies and guidelines to assure any and all deadlines are met timely in future periods. Responsible Official: Fiscal Director Date of Completion: October 2020
