Ohio State Special Audit of Hamilton County Department of Job & Family Services
The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS)
initiated a special audit of the Hamilton County Department of Job
and Family Services (HCDJFS) in cooperation with the Ohio Auditor of
State. The special audit was the result of irregularities uncovered
by the ODJFS during a regular audit of HCDJFS. The audit conducted
by ODJFS revealed that HCDJFS inappropriately charged foster care
expenses to other programs such as Medicaid, food stamps, Title XX
of the Social Security Act, and the Workplace Investment Act.
This report by the Ohio Auditor of State was conducted at the
request of ODJFS to determine if HCDJFS funds had been used as
intended by the funding source and if certain contract payments were
made correctly. The Auditor of State determined that HCDJFS had
inappropriately transferred and mingled federal and state funds.
