Fraud

Employee Warning Signs


Fraud Assumptions• Fraud does not happen in our organization• It does and will happen

• We cannot mitigate the risk • Awareness will mitigate some fraud risks but not all of them

• Our audit/monitoring visit did not find anything• Most complex schemes will be, and are, difficult to uncover

• The OIG will detect all fraud schemes• The OIG operates mainly in a reactive manner because we

frequently work with historical data

reasonable pay rates, and specified work products

• DC Charter School Example


Fraud Guidance

OMB Circular § 200.112 Conflicts of Interest• The Federal awarding agency must establish

conflict of interest policies for Federal awards. The non-Federal entity must disclose in writing any potential conflict of interest to the Federal awarding agency or pass-through entity in accordance with applicable Federal awarding agency policy.

Fraud Mitigation

What Can Your Organization Do?• Maintain strong internal controls • Conduct outside audits • Require accountability and control of

credit/ATM cards and checkbooks • Increase employee awareness about fraud

risks and schemes


Fraud Mitigation

What Can Your Organization Do?• Strict Adherence to:– OMB Circulars– OJP Financial Guide– Organizational Policies and Procedures


Fraud Prevention

The Keys are:• Professional Skepticism• Communication


Disclosing Fraud

award must disclose, in a timely manner, in writing to the Federal awarding agency or pass-through entity all violations of Federal criminal law involving fraud, bribery, or gratuity violations potentially affecting the Federal award.


Reporting to OIG

• Confidential and Anonymous Reporting• Employees of DOJ and its contractors,

subcontractors, and grantees perform an important service by reporting what they reasonably believe to be evidence of wrongdoing, and they should never be subject to or threatened with reprisal.

The importance of progress reports

� Your opportunity to communicate with the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW)

� Your data is how VAWA’s effectiveness is measured and reported out to decision-makers

The Attorney General is mandated to report to the U.S. Congress on victims served, not served, and the effectiveness of OVW grant programs in the “Biennial Report to Congress.”

� Your data increases understanding of the scope of violence against women – trends, promising practices, areas of need

Filing a blank report in a reporting period?85

Things to Keep in Mind...� Answer “mandatory” sections (in order to validate the form)

¡ A1. Grant information

¡ B. Purpose Areas

¡ C3. Coordinated Community Response

¡ E. Narrative

� Use the narrative to explain that the report is blank due to funds not being released or used

CSSP

Section A2. – Reporting Staff Information86

CSSP

Things to Keep in Mind...� Report staff funded under the CSSP grant for the 6-month

period � Put staff time into FTE terms; FTE = Full-time equivalent� Include part-time staff, partially funded staff, temporary staff,

overtime, contractors, and consultants � Prorate staff FTEs � Report by activity performed rather than by job title � Divide staff into multiple functions if appropriate

Section A2. – Calculating FTEs87

Calculations based on 26 weeks or 1,040 working hours in a six-month reporting period:

1.0 = (40 hrs/week, 1,040 hrs/six months [40 hrs X 26 wks])

.50 = (20 hrs/week, 520 hrs/six months)



.10 = ( 4 hrs/week, 104 hrs/six months)

FTE = hours worked in the 6-month reporting period, divided by 1,040

CSSP

Remember to pro-rate FTEs if not working for the whole 6 months.

Report by job function, not by job title. Distribute FTEs by what the staff did rather than what they are called.

� You are completing a Progress Report for the July to December 2018 reporting period

� A full-time victim advocate was hired, and started September 1st

� This person spent half of their time providing victim advocacy, and the other half of their time coordinatingthe program

88

CSSP

Section A2. Staff Q.12 – Example

Section A2. Staff – Example (continued)89

� Because this person only worked 4 months out of the 6-month reporting period, you would pro-rate the FTE.

� 4 months divided by the possible 6 months in a reporting period:

4 ÷ 6 = 0.67 FTEs

� Then you have to break out FTEs by function.

� The advocate spent half of their time providing advocacy and half of their time coordinating activities, so…

� We need to divide their time by job function rather than job title:

Victim advocate = 0.34 Program coordinator = 0.33 (or vice versa if you prefer, as

you can only report to the second decimal)

CSSP

Section C1. Training vs. C2. Education90

Section C1. Training captures…Activities for professionals to improve their response to victims/survivors as it relates to their role in the system

*Do not report training provided to CSSP grant-funded staff

Section C2. Education captures…Education activities designed to disseminate general information to the public such as community groups, students (unless they are pre-professional), parents, community businesses, etc.

CSSP

Training vs. Education Continued91

Questions 15 and 19 capture… the number of training events (Q.15) and education events (Q.19) provided

Questions 16 and 20 capture…the number of people trained (Q.16) and the number of peopleeducated (Q.20) at these events

CSSP

A training or education event can be a 30 minute event or class, or a three-day conference – an

event is determined by the audience.

Section D. Victim Services92

• Most of the data requested in the Victim Services section is congressionally mandated – Congress wants to know how many of the number of victims/survivors seeking services were served and how many could not be served.

• Provide information in this section that represents onlythose victims/survivors served and services provided with CSSP funding.

CSSP

Section D. Victim Services Continued93

To count a victim/survivor: o They must have requested or accepted a service(s)

o That service(s) must be CSSP grant-funded

o The victim/survivor must be a primary victim of domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or sexual assault

Important! Victims reported as served, not served, or partially served are an unduplicated count and should be counted only once in each reporting period they receive grant-funded services

CSSP

Section D. Victim Services Continued94

Who is not counted at all: o Victims/survivors seeking only services not funded with

your CSSP grant o Victims/survivors that did not accept any of the grant-

funded services that were offered or recommended o Victims/survivors who are not primary victims of

domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or sexual assault (secondary victims served are reported in Q.33 only)

CSSP

Section D: Victim Services – Q.3295

¡Served: Received all requested services that are funded by the CSSP grant

¡Partially served: Received some but not all requested services that are funded by the CSSP grant

¡Not served: Received none of the requested services that are funded by the CSSP grant

CSSP

Section D. Scenario

� 50 survivors of varying victimizations have come to your agency

� You are grant-funded to provide only victim/survivor advocacy and counseling, although you provide other services that are funded with other sources as well

� Of the 50 survivors who came to your agency: ¡ 30 requested advocacy only¡ 15 requested counseling only¡ 5 requested counseling and job training

96

CSSP

Section D. Scenario

� Of the 30 that requested advocacy only:25 received advocacy but five did not because of your program’s hours of operation.

� Of the 15 that requested counseling only: 13 received counseling and two did not because the counseling groups were full and they were put on a waiting list. They remained on the list when the reporting period closed.

� Of the five that requested counseling and job training:All five received counseling, but none were provided job training

97

CSSP

Section D. Example

For this example:

gf = grant-funded service

ngf = non-grant-funded service

30 requested advocacy (gf)

25 served 5 not served

15 requested counseling (gf)

13 served 2 not served

5 requested counseling (gf) and job training (ngf)

5 served
