Moving Forward: Practical Considerations for Grantees
Presented by Edward “Ted” Waters, Esq., Feldesman Leifer LLP



With everything still swirling, it's time to get back to what grant managers are best at - the professional management of federal awards. This practical webinar will begin with a legal primer, guiding you through the meaning of current court cases affecting your grants along with the definitions and enforcement of court actions and how and where they apply. Looking ahead, we address the following questions: What happens next? What should you focus on? What are the hot compliance issues? Do you need to comply with new terms and conditions?

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn the difference between a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction

  • Describe whether or not court cases and actions apply to your grants

  • Determine the hot button compliance areas for your organization as anticipated agency guidance drops

From Challenges to Opportunities:
How Grants Professionals Can Help Influence the “New Normal”
in Federal Financial Assistance
Presented by Matthew Hanson, CGMS, GPC and Anna Valdez, CGMS, Witt O’Brien’s



Grants professionals are key to shaping the evolving grants landscape. This session will explore the "new normal" in grants management, focusing on necessary reforms, challenges, and opportunities in pre- and post-award management. While not lobbyists, grants professionals can advocate for improvements by engaging policymakers and funders. The session will examine where we are, where we are going, and how professionals can drive meaningful changes in federal financial assistance.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand the evolving federal financial assistance landscape.

  • Identify strategies to enhance efficiency, transparency, and accessibility in federal financial assistance.

  • Explore “advocacy” strategies for grants professionals.
