About This Audit
The amended fiscal reports for Lancaster County Children and Youth Agency have been produced for the fiscal years 2021-2022 and 2022-2023. These reports, mandated by Act 148 of 1976, certify the actual commonwealth expenditures for children residing in the county. The engagement aimed to ensure compliance with fiscal and program regulations, excluding adherence to auditing standards. The Auditor General verified that the reports fairly represent the commonwealth expenditures incurred, with no adjustments needed for the agency’s submissions. The report aligns with DHS guidelines, and the final figures have been discussed with agency management. DHS will review the report for potential adjustments before settlement, allowing for appeals under DHS procedures. The cooperation of Lancaster County officials and staff has been acknowledged, underscoring the smooth completion of the fiscal report process.
