HARRISBURG — Auditor General Timothy L. DeFoor released compliance audits of 14 county children and youth services agencies performed during the second quarter of 2025.

“Our audits ensure that counties are properly using state funds to protect at-risk children,” Auditor General DeFoor said.

By law, the department audits the fiscal reports that CYS County agencies submit to the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services (DHS) which document how state funds are used to protect children.

The audit report, which was shared with the county and DHS upon completion, is available online at paauditor.gov.

In the report, the auditors state that the agency is owed money from DHS for both fiscal years. In the fiscal year 2021-22, the adjustments increased agency expenditures by $145,156 and increased non-reimbursable expenditures by $115,472, resulting in the amount of $17,811 being due to the county.

For the fiscal year 2022-23, the adjustments made by the auditors showed that $18,246 is due to the county. The auditors explained the adjustments increased the Net State Share by $148,513 and the non-reimbursable expenditures by $118,103, leaving $18,246 due to the county.
