Report Description
The Suffolk DA's office provides services to keep young people out of the criminal justice system and supports to victims and witness of crimes. Our audit, which examined July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2019, shows the Suffolk DA’s office is effectively administering these important services.
This audit found that the District’s meal sponsors moved quickly to open Grab & Go meal sites in areas of greatest need, but that their efforts could have been supported better by stronger coordination mandated by District leadership. Specifically, we found that 96% of at-risk students had access to at least one meal site located in their home neighborhood cluster in the first month of the COVID-19 pandemic—later growing to 99% by June—but some neighborhoods with many at-risk students could have had better access to meals sooner.
