EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The objectives of this audit were to determine whether the Office of City Manager, a Ryan White Title I grantee, ensured that the Norfolk Community Services Board (NCSB), one of its contractors, (1) provided the expected program services to clients eligible for CARE Act Title I and (2) followed Federal requirements for claiming program costs under CARE Act Title I.  The Office of City Manager did not ensure that NCSB provided the expected level of program services to eligible CARE Act Title I clients or followed Federal requirements for charging program costs.  In addition to one procedural recommendation, we recommended that the Office of City Manager refund $12,291 to the Federal Government for the amount inappropriately paid to NCSB.
