SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCYREPEAT OF 2024-002OTHER MATTERS

During the audit, it was noted that pass-through awards from American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry totaling $240,938 for the year ended June 30, 2025, had not been included on the SEFA. In addition, certain adjustments were made to the initial SEFA that was provided. As a result, management provided a revised SEFA after audit testing had begun. Cause: Since this is a repeat finding, the omission of the pass-through awards appears to be an oversight due to the transition in the finance team. However, the adjustments made to the SEFA are related to Finding 2025-001. Effect or Potential Effect: The SEFA was missing Federal expenditures of $240,938 at the start of the audit. The expenditures in the SEFA were adjusted due to the issues with account reconciliations per Finding 2025-001. When the SEFA is not accurately prepared, it could have an effect on the auditor's determination of major programs and on the auditor's sample selections.Recommendation: We recommend that the Council enhance its procedures related to the preparation of the SEFA to ensure all required amounts are included. Repeat Finding: This is a repeat finding.

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCYOTHER MATTERS

As a result, management provided a revised SEFA after audit testing had begun. Cause: The Council has not received pass-through awards in prior years and the omission appears to be due to a misunderstanding of the SEFA reporting requirements for pass-through awards. Effect or Potential Effect: The SEFA was missing federal expenditures of $278,811 at the start of the audit. When the SEFA is not accurately prepared, it could have an effect on the auditor's determination of major programs and on the auditor's sample selections.

Corrective Action Plan

Views of Responsible Officials: Management concurs with the recommendation. Following discussions with our Grants Director, we became aware, after submitting the SEFA to the auditors, that the pass-through federal grants in place during FY2024 needed to be added to the SEFA. To ensure proper reporting moving forward, Sage Intacct was rolled out on July 1, 2024, as CSWE’s new accounting system. This update will help our grants and finance teams better track and report these pass-through grants on the SEFA.
