Ten years ago OMB took the notable step of consolidating a myriad of circulars that regulated federal financial assistance (i.e., grants) into a “super” circular known as the Uniform Guidance.

We have, and we—Dismas Locaria of Venable LLP and Dan Durst and Marc Bucalo of Award Advisors—plan to discuss these changes and answer your questions regarding how nonprofits can utilize the new flexibilities to their advantage and remain mindful and vigilant of compliance concerns and obligations.

The nonprofit sector faces unique challenges in managing grants effectively, which are crucial for funding various programs and initiatives.

Following the COVID-19 pandemic, many nonprofits have changed from an in-person work model to a fully remote or hybrid work model.

We will discuss issues unique to different types of tax-exempt organizations, including public charities, membership organizations, and family foundations. Bob Waldman, a partner at Venable who represents many nonprofit organizations and is President of the Venable Foundation, will present at this webinar.
