Hartford, Connecticut-based Community Renewal Team, an action agency that received federal and state grant funding, agreed to settle allegations under the Federal and Connecticut False Claims Acts that it charged employee hours spent on state-funded grant programs to federal grants from HHS, HUD, and DOE, charged an employee’s time to a Head Start grant when that employee was working on other programs, and failed to stop a program manager from misappropriating $18,500 for her person use; the agency will pay $362,000 to settle all claims.
