[FREE Webinar] Learn About Proposed New Federal Grant Certification Requirements

Posted By: Dorian Hines Announcements ,

The General Services Administration (GSA) is proposing updates to certifications for all federal financial assistance recipients—aligning requirements with recent executive orders and U.S. Department of Justice guidance on unlawful discrimination. These changes would apply broadly across all grants, cooperative agreements, and other federal funding vehicles. Hear how this change could introduce new compliance and legal exposure risks for both nonprofits and public entities, including civil and criminal penalties. It would also apply to sub-grantees with the onus on the prime awardee to monitor compliance, so state pass-through dollars also would be affected.

Join us on May 4, 2026 at Noon ET (11:00AM CT) for a special educational webinar to learn more about what is being proposed and advocacy actions already taken by AFP and GPA in partnership with national partners.
