Government Grants & Contracts
Getting Reimbursed for Your Nonprofit’s Indirect Costs
Originally presented February 24, 2015
About this webinar
New federal rules aren’t just for nonprofits with federal grants. Whether your nonprofit receives funds directly from a federal agency or federal funds are mixed into your state and local contracts and grants (which you may not even be aware of), the new rules from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) went into affect at the end of December and apply to you. Most notably, the OMB Uniform Guidance makes clear that state and local governments are required to reimburse you at least a portion of your nonprofit’s indirect costs (sometimes called overhead or administrative costs) when federal funds are involved. But, this is not the only change nonprofits need to be aware of to ensure governments pay their fair share of the costs. To maintain good standing, nonprofits must also be aware of and comply with other changes as well.
In this one-hour webinar you’ll learn:
- What the major changes in the OMB Uniform Guidance are that will affect your organization;
- What your organization needs to do to take advantage of and comply with the new rules;
- What you can do to ensure state and local governments implement the changes as OMB intended.
