Results of Limited Scope Review at Nye County Health & Human Services

Based on our assessment, Nye County Health & Human Services (county agency) is financially viable, has the capacity to manage and account for Federal funds, and is capable of operating its Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) program in accordance with Federal regulations. However, we noted a weakness related to the composition of the board of directors. The CSBG program provides funds to alleviate the causes and conditions of poverty in communities. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) provided additional funding for the program.

We recommended that the Administration for Children and Families consider the information presented in this report in assessing the county agency's ability to operate its CSBG program in accordance with Federal regulations and in determining whether the county agency is appropriately managing and accounting for Recovery Act funds.
