Federal grants are now more accessible than ever. Revised guidance reduces burdens on grant seekers and increases transparency concerning more than $1.2 trillion in federal funding.
The Biden-Harris Administration has announced the most substantial updates to the Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) Uniform Grants Guidance – which sets the requirements for agencies providing Federal financial assistance – since its inception ten years ago.
