DESCRIPTION:<p>\n	<strong><span style="font-size: 14.4px\;">LEARN ABOUT THE
  LATEST GRANTS REGULATIONS AT THIS VIRTUAL FEDERAL GRANTS COMPLIANCE TRAINI
 NG!&nbsp\;</span></strong></p>\n<p>\n	<span style="font-size: 14.4px\;">Alt
 hough tribal organizations are among the many entities receiving federal gr
 ants\, they face a specific set of challenges when managing awards under fe
 deral requirements\, as well as their own tribal self-determination statute
 s. Many tribes also are reliant on federal funds as they struggle with econ
 omic disruptions stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. Going forward\, what 
 programs are specifically available for you as a tribal entity to help meet
  your needs\, and how should you develop policies to ensure compliance with
  multiple sets of regulations and laws?&nbsp\;</span></p>\n<p>\n	<span styl
 e="font-size: 14.4px\;">Tribal organizations differ from other recipients o
 f federal financial assistance as the uniform guidance exempts their audits
  from being made publicly available by the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. In 
 addition\, while revisions to the uniform guidance issued in August 2020 au
 thorized that a nonfederal entity&rsquo\;s federally negotiated indirect ra
 te\, distribution base\, and rate type be posted on a publicly available fe
 deral website or tribal organization are exempted from having their rates p
 osted.&nbsp\;</span></p>\n<p>\n	<span style="font-size: 14.4px\;">There are
  numerous other changes under the uniform guidance revisions that you as a 
 tribal government and organization must understand so that you can adjust y
 ou priorities and resources. These changes\, coupled with the rapid disburs
 ement of funds through several COVID-relieve packages\, emphasize the impor
 tance that you protect your federal funding now more than ever before in th
 ese uncertain times.</span></p>\n<p>\n	<span style="font-size: 14.4px\;">Jo

 our grants and protect your funding.</span></p>\n<p>\n	<span style="font-si
 ze: 14.4px\;">Our two-day agenda includes powerhouse sessions that cover ev
 erything you need to know &ndash\; start to finish &ndash\; about how to ta
