His certification as a CPA in four states, as well as his CFE, CFS, FINOP and DABFA licenses, has enabled him to make the dream a reality. Breard holds a BS in Accounting, with a business emphasis, from CSU Northridge. He studied Corporate Governance at Tulane University Law School.

    • Regional Center Audits SB 74 & Section 4652.5If you’re a non-profit service provider receiving annual disbursements from one of the 21 California Regional Centers, you may now be required to contract with an independent CPA firm to conduct an annual audit of your finances. The new addendum to the Nonprofit Integrity Act of California, in effect since March 24, 2011, requires service providers with negotiated annual rates of $250,000 to $500,000 to submit an independent review or independent audit of financial records.  For providers with a negotiated rate over $500,000, an audit is required.  This rule also applies to work activity program service providers receiving less than $250,000. The audit reports must certify that 85% of all government funds are used for actual programs and that no more than 15% is funneled toward administrative costs.  This new statute was passed after widespread reports of nepotism and other abusive practices among service provider management.   Look to Breard & Associates, Inc. to get it done. Breard & Associates, Inc.’s years of experience in non-profit audits and reviews, including long-time knowledge of PCAOB and other regulations, as well as our reasonable fees, make us the perfect choice for completing this audit thoroughly and on time.   Contact us for…
