Monitoring of refugee assistance: Direct assistance to international refugees takes two forms: direct payments to vendors, primarily for expenses related to housing, and cash assistance which is meant for all other living expenses. Clients are counseled on the use of these funds and agree not to access public cash assistance during the program period. governmental agencies awarding these grants conduct periodic program and financial audits of the YMCA to ensure funds are being used according to the terms of the grant. Monitoring of fee reductions: Because the demand for financial assistance is great, the YMCA must follow eligibility guidelines. Scholarships are awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis, subject to available resources. Applicants are asked to pay some portion of the fees. If acceptable, a volunteer work program will be arranged. Applicants must complete a financial assistance information form and are required to provide proof of income. Subsidies will be granted to the extent that funds are available. Financial assistance is reviewed for eligibility annually for YMCA programs. The YMCA monitors the use of subsidies by tracking the applicant's attendance in the program and their participation in bearing a portion of the cost. Additionally, the senior compliance auditor conducts periodic audits to ensure compliance with YMCA policy in the distribution and monitoring of scholarships. Monitoring for sub-recipients: Sub-recipients of federal grant funding are monitored through an annual review of their financial processes, policies, and procedures and are monitored on a quarterly basis for spending in accordance with federal and program guidelines.
