MATERIAL WEAKNESS

A good system of internal accounting control requires a proper segregation of duties to prevent one person from being in a position to authorize, execute and record the same transaction. Criteria and Cause: Due to having a limited number of employees to handle all accounting functions, some duties and functions performed are contrary to ideal control procedures. Effect: We understand that the Organizations have segregated duties to the degree possible, including implementing monthly review procedures and additional oversight by the Executive Director and Board of Directors, and that management feels further segregation of duties is not practical with the limited number of people employed by management. Recommendation: We recommend that the review procedures implemented by the Executive Director and Board of Directors continue and that segregation of duties continue to be closely monitored. It is our understanding that efforts have been made to segregate duties to the degree possible and that further segregation of duties is not possible with the limited number of people utilized in the accounting function of the Organization.

2022-003: Segregation of Duties Condition: A good system of internal accounting control requires a proper segregation of duties to prevent one person from being in a position to authorize, execute and record the same transaction.

MATERIAL WEAKNESS

The Organization did not submit the audit report to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within 9 months after the end of the fiscal year in accordance with the Uniform Guidance. Criteria and Cause: The June 30, 2022 audit was required to be submitted to the FAC within 9 months after the end of the fiscal year in accordance with the Uniform Guidance. However, due to needing additional time to complete the Uniform Guidance audit because of the Federal provider relief funds received during the pandemic and the delay by Federal accounting bodies in clarifying the rules for reporting and auditing these funds, this deadline was not met. Effect: The potential effect of not submitting the financial statements in a timely manner could subject the Organization to disciplinary measures by Federal grant agencies. Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization submit the current audit to the FAC as soon as available, and the Organization work diligently to meet all future audit filing deadlines.

The current audit will be submitted to DHS and the FAC as soon as available and the Organization will work diligently to meet all future audit filing deadlines. The current year audit has been delayed by Federal provider relief funds received during the pandemic and the delay by Federal accounting bodies in clarifying the rules for reporting and auditing these funds.
