With the approval of ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act), nearly $2 trillion in federal funding became discretionary grant opportunities. While many organizations have seen their grant budgets increase dramatically, many lack the resources, awareness, and expertise to appropriately manage these funds. The long list of 884 federal grant management “musts” in 2 CFR Part 200 aka, the Uniform Guidance, can feel overwhelming.

During this session, Lucy will show how to implement a simple four-pillar framework for successfully managing your federal grants with practical examples for attendees. This will be a virtual-only session and be predominantly instructor-driven, with time for Q&A at the end.
