THIS MONITORING MAY INCLUDE VISITS BY REPRESENTATIVES OF THE SOCIETY TO OBSERVE GRANTEE'S PROGRAM PROCEDURES AND OPERATIONS AND TO EVALUATE THE PROGRAM WITH GRANTEE'S PERSONNEL, OR BY THE SOCIETY RECEIVING BENCHMARKING GRANT REPORTS. THE SOCIETY ALSO CONDUCTS FINANCIAL MONITORING OF GRANTEES.

ALL GRANT REPORTING FORMS REQUIRE THE SIGNATURE OF THE PERSON PREPARING THE REPORTS AS CERTIFICATION THAT THE PROGRAM ACTIVITIES DID OCCUR. TWO OF THE TEAMS HAVE STARTED CONDUCTING PERFORMANCE AUDITS BY AN EXTERNAL AUDITOR ON MOST OF OUR GRANTEES/GRANTS.
