Catania Orders Production of AIDS Records

dcogcadmin | November 17, 2009

The federal Department of Housing and Urban Development is still awaiting records that it requested from the District’s AIDS office in June, and has threatened to withhold funding if the records are not produced immediately.  The city’s AIDS administration has come under fire recently for poorly managing its funds and the service providers it contracts with; HUD had requested a program audit and certain financial and other records, some of which the city has failed to provide in the past.  D.C. Council member David Catania, chair of the Council’s health committee, has ordered the office to gather the documents within 24 hours. Washington Post
