Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors of
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County
Iowa City, Iowa
Report on the Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County as
of and for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, which comprise the statements of financial position,
the related statements of activities and changes in net assets, cash flows, and functional expenses for the
years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the
changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards,
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are
further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our
report. We are required to be independent of Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County and to meet our
other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We
believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
audit opinions.
Responsibilities of Management for The Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the
design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair
presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or
events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Neighborhood Centers for Johnson
County’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements
are available to be issued.
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that
includes our opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and
therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting
from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that,
individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgement made by a reasonable user based on
the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government
Auditing Standards, we:
x Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
x Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such
procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements.
x Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion
is expressed.
x Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant
accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the
financial statements.
x Conclude whether, in our judgement, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate,
that raise substantial doubt about the Organization’s ability to continue as a going concern for a
reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the
planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related
matters that we identified during the audit.

Supplementary Information
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements of
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County taken as a whole. The accompanying schedules of program
revenue and support and expenditures of federal awards are presented for purposes of additional analysis
and are not a required part of the financial statements. The schedule of expenditures of federal awards is
presented as required by Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative
Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards. Such information is the
responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and
other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including
comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used
to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional
procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In
our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements
as a whole.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 7, 2024,
on our consideration of Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County’s internal control over financial
reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant
agreements, and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal
control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing and not to provide an
opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an
audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering Neighborhood
Centers of Johnson County’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.
Emphasis of Matter - Prior Period Adjustment
As discussed in Note 15 to the financial statements, the June 30, 2022 financial statements have been
restated to correct a misstatement. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2023 and 2022
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Activities - Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County (the Organization) is a publicly supported
organization that provides activity services to low-income residents of the Iowa City, Iowa area.
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County is dedicated to creating a better future for people and
neighborhoods through programs that educate, strengthen families, and create a sense of community. The
Organization is supported primarily by grants, awards, and general governmental allocations. The
Organization’s fiscal year ends June 30. Significant accounting policies followed by the Organization are
presented below.
Basis of Accounting - The financial statements of the Organization have been prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting and accordingly reflect significant receivables, payables and other liabilities.
Basis of Presentation - The financial statements of the Organization have been prepared to report
information regarding its financial position and activities according to the following net asset
classifications:
Net assets without donor restrictions - Net assets that are not subject to donor-imposed
restrictions and may be expended for any purpose in performing the primary objectives of the
organization. These net assets may be used at the discretion of the Organization’s management
and the board of directors.
Net assets with donor restrictions - Net assets subject to stipulations imposed by donors and
grantors. All donor restrictions are temporary in nature; those restrictions will be met by actions
of the Organization or by the passage of time.
Revenues are reported as increases in net assets without donor restrictions unless use of the related assets
is limited by donor-imposed restrictions. Expenses are reported as decreases in net assets without donor
restrictions. Expirations of donor restrictions on net assets (i.e., the donor-stipulated purpose has been
fulfilled and/or the stipulated time period has elapsed) are reported as reclassifications between the
applicable classes of net assets.
Contributions, including unconditional promises to give, are recognized as revenue in the period received.
Conditional promises to give are not recognized until they become unconditional; that is, when the
conditions on which they depend are substantially met. Contributions of assets other than cash are
recorded at their estimated fair value. Contributions with donor-imposed restrictions that are met within
the same reporting period are reported as donor restricted revenues, and a reclassification to net assets
without donor restrictions is made to reflect the expiration of such restrictions.
Contributions of land, buildings, and equipment without donor restrictions concerning the use of such
long-lived assets are reported as revenues without donor restrictions. Contributions of cash or other assets
to be used to acquire land, buildings, and equipment are reported as revenues with donor restrictions; the
restrictions are considered to be released at the time of acquisition of such long-lived assets.

Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2023 and 2022
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Contributions of donated goods are recorded at their fair values in the period received. Contributions of
donated services that create or enhance nonfinancial assets or that require specialized skills, are provided
by individuals possessing those skills, and would typically need to be purchased if not provided by
donation, are recorded at their fair values in the period received.
Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) received with terms that are forgivable as long as the
entity does not sell, assign or transfer its interest are recorded as long-term debt. Revenue is recognized
upon completion of the agreement terms as debt payments are not required to be made as long as the
agreement is honored.
Conditional occupancy loans are recorded as long-term debt until the end of the agreements, at which
time the Organization will recognize revenue for the full amount.
New Accounting Pronouncement – Leases – In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases
(Topic 842), which supersedes existing guidance in Topic 840, Leases. The FASB subsequently issued the
following additional ASUs, which amend and clarify Topic 842: ASU 2018-01, Land Easement Practical
Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases;
ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements; ASU 2018-20, Narrow-scope Improvements
for Lessors; and ASU 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements. Topic 842 amends both
lessor and lessee accounting with the most significant change being the requirement for lessees to
recognize right-to-use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for operating leases.
The Organization adopted the leasing standards effective July 1, 2022, using the modified retrospective
approach with July 1, 2022 as the initial date of application. The Organization elected to use all available
practical expedients provided in the transition guidance. These allowed the Organization to not reassess
the identification, classification and initial direct costs of lessor agreements and to use hindsight in lessee
and lessor agreements for determining lease term and right-of-use asset impairment. As of July 1, 2022,
adoption of Topic 842 did not result in any material adjustments to balance sheet accounts related to
lessor accounting.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ
from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include all monies in banks and highly liquid
investments with an original maturity date of less than three months. The carrying value of cash and cash
equivalents approximates fair value because of the short maturities of those financial instruments.
Income Taxes - The Organization is a nonprofit organization as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the
Internal Revenue Code and is exempt from federal and state income taxes. The Organization is subject to
routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in
progress.

Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2023 and 2022
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Program Receivables and Unconditional Promises to Give - The Organization carries its program
receivables and unconditional promises at cost less an allowance for doubtful accounts, when necessary.
On a periodic basis, the Organization evaluates its program receivables and unconditional promises and
determines if an allowance is necessary based on history of past write-offs and collections and current
credit conditions. Currently there is no allowance deemed necessary. Unconditional promises to give are
receivable within one year.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Organization reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an
asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are
considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount of which the
carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at
the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
Revenue Recognition – The Organization receives revenue from contracts aimed to increase the ability to
provide the services to low-income residents of the Iowa City, Iowa area. Revenue is recognized based on
the progress of complete satisfaction of the performance obligation (the service stated in the contract)
using the input method. The performance obligations under these contracts include providing the services
and assistance to school-aged children. Under the input method, revenue is recognized based on labor
hours expended, costs incurred, and time elapsed.
Revenue from client service grants and contracts are recognized as the performance obligations are
completed.
Cost-reimbursable Grants - The majority of the Organization’s revenue is derived from cost-reimbursable
federal grants, which are conditioned upon certain performance requirements and the incurrence of
allowable qualifying expenses. Amounts received are recognized as revenue when the Organization has
incurred expenditures in compliance with specific contract or grant provisions. Amounts received prior to
incurring qualifying expenditures are reported as refundable advances in the statement of financial
position. The Organization received advance funding from cost-reimbursable grants of $983,270 and
$866,282 that has not been recognized at June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively, because qualifying
expenditures have not yet been incurred. These funds were reported as a refundable advance. Awarded
grant contracts for which qualifying expenditures had not yet been incurred by year-end totaled
$1,078,714 for the year ended June 30, 2023.
Functional Expenses - The costs of providing various program and supporting activities have been
summarized on a functional basis in the statement of functional expenses. Expenses that can be identified
with a specific program or supporting activity are allocated directly according to their natural expenditure
classification. Other expenses that are common to several functions are allocated based on time estimates
made by management.
Reclassifications - Certain prior year amounts in the financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported
change in net assets.
Date of Management’s Review - Management has evaluated subsequent events through March 7, 2024,
the date which the financial statements were available to be issued.

Independent Auditors' Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on
Compliance Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed
in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards
To the Board of Directors of
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County
Iowa City, Iowa
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards,
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of Neighborhood Centers
of Johnson County, which comprise the financial statements as listed in the table of contents as of and for
the year ended June 30, 2023, and have issued our report thereon dated March 7, 2024.
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered Neighborhood Centers of
Johnson County’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the
financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion
on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow
management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or
detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination
of deficiencies in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement
of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A
significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less
severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with
governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this
section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material
weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may
exist that were not identified. We did identify a certain deficiency in internal control, described as 2023-
001 in the accompanying schedule of findings and response that we consider to be a material weakness.
Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County’s
financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain
provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a
direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an
opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do
not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other
matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance
and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s
internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with
Government Auditing Standards in considering the Organization’s internal control and compliance.
Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Independent Auditors’ Report on Compliance for Each Major Program and on
Internal Control Over Compliance Required by the Uniform Guidance
To the Board of Directors of
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County
Iowa City, Iowa
Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program
Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
We have audited Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County’s compliance with the types of compliance
requirements described in the OMB Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect
on Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County’s major federal program for the year ended June 30, 2023.
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County’s major federal program is identified in the summary of
auditor’s results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs.
In our opinion, Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County complied, in all material respects, with the
types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on its
major federal program for the year ended June 30, 2023.
Basis for Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
We conducted an audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America, the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing
Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the audit requirements of Title 2
U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and
Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Our responsibilities under those standards
and the Uniform Guidance are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of
Compliance section of our report.
We are required to be independent of Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County and to meet our other
ethical responsibilities, in accordance with relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe
that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on
compliance for each major federal program. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County’s compliance with the compliance requirements referred to
above.
Responsibilities of Management for Compliance
Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements referred to above and for the design,
implementation, and maintenance of effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of
laws, statutes, regulations, rules, and provisions of contracts or grant agreements applicable to
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County’s federal program.
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the
compliance requirements referred to above occurred, whether due to fraud or error, and express an
opinion on Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County’s compliance based on our audit. Reasonable
assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing
Standards, and the Uniform Guidance will always detect material noncompliance when it exists. The risk
of not detecting material noncompliance resulting from fraud is higher than for that resulting from error,
as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of
internal control. Noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above is considered
material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, it would influence the
judgement made by a reasonable user of the report on compliance about Neighborhood Centers of
Johnson County’s compliance with the requirements of each major federal program as a whole.
In performing and audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing
Standards, and the Uniform Guidance, we:
x Exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
x Identify and assess the risks of material noncompliance, whether due to fraud or error, and design
and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a
test basis, evidence regarding Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County’s compliance with the
compliance requirements referred to above and performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances.
x Obtain an understanding of Neighborhood Center of Johnson County’s internal control over
compliance relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the
Uniform Guidance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County’s internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no
such opinion is expressed.
We are required to communicate with those charges with governance regarding, among other matters, the
planned scope and timing of the audit and any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in internal
control over compliance that we identified during the audit.
Report on Internal Control Over Compliance
A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over
compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned
functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a
federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a
deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal
program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in
internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over
compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material
weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged
with governance.
23
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section above and was not designed to identify all
deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant
deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal
control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. However, material
weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance may exist that were not
identified.
Our audit was not designed for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal
control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our
testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the
Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.
