The Wisconsin Department of Children and Families (DCF) did not always comply with Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) program requirements and the terms and conditions of the program's grants, resulting in unallowable expenditures totaling $275,175. Specifically, for the five subrecipients reviewed, DCF did not ensure that one subrecipient used grant funding for allowable purposes. We also found that for three of the five subrecipients, DCF did not ensure that subrecipients' time-and-effort reporting systems complied with Federal requirements. In addition, DCF did not have adequate procedures to monitor subrecipients, could not provide an approved budget for one of its subrecipient agreements, and did not comply with Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (FFATA) reporting requirements. We did not identify any unallowable expenditures at the State level.
