This report presents results of the audit of the Office of Justice Programs Drug and Mental Health Treatment Grants Awarded to My Health My Resources of Tarrant County, Fort Worth, Texas.
This audit of the Office of Justice Programs Drug and Mental Health Treatment Grants Awarded to My Health My Resources (MHMR) of Tarrant County, Fort Worth, Texas, concluded that MHMR did not adhere to all of the grant requirements tested but demonstrated adequate progress towards achieving the grants’ stated goals and objectives. This audit did not identify significant concerns regarding MHMR’s management of the grant budgets or drawdowns. However, auditors found that MHMR did not comply with essential grant conditions related to performance reports, the use of grant funds, indirect costs, matching costs, and Federal Financial Reports (FFR). The purposes of the OJP grants reviewed were to enhance the operations of adult drug and veterans’ treatment courts, support those impacted by illicit drugs, enhance responses to people with mental illnesses and substance abuse, and enhance existing family treatment courts. Auditors reviewed MHMR’s stated accomplishments for the grants and found no indications that it was not adequately achieving the program goals and objectives. Auditors found performance reports were inaccurate or not adequately supported and MHMR’s written policies and procedures did not have specific language regarding indirect and matching costs. Auditors also identified unsupported contractor costs, unallowable and unsupported other direct costs, unallowable indirect costs, and unsupported matching costs. Auditors also found that the FFRs tested were supported by MHMR’s accounting records for the grants; however, auditors also found that MHMR did not report required data for indirect and matching costs. The Office of Justice Programs (OJP) awarded MHMR four grants for the Adult Drug Court and Veterans Treatment Court Discretionary Grant Program; the Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and Substance Abuse Site-Based Program; the Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Program; and the Family Treatment Court Program.
