With no new state and local government funding in the latest COVID-19 relief package, and revenue shortfalls of over $400 billion over the next three years, it’s more important than ever to execute a strong government grant proposal. A competitive grant proposal means the difference between those who continue to experience revenue decline and those who will improve economic outlook in the long-term. However, with no single template to address the various (and complicated) types of funding opportunities, where do you start?
In this webinar from American City and County and eCivis, attendees will learn:
3 Ways to Maximize Your COVID-19 Funding Through Digital Transformation
As governments look to 2021, there is a need to ensure that every available source of funding is leveraged while guaranteeing business continuity in the age of COVID-19.

With states expecting budget shortfalls of $650 billion over three years, grants have never been a more important source of funding. At the same time, governments must pay special attention to how they manage and track their grant funds. View this on-demand training to learn best practices and review important Uniform Guidance details to ensure grant governance processes and procedures are in place to ensure success in a post-pandemic era.
Right now, governments have a lot on their plates, from determining reopening policies and potentially transitioning workforces from telework back to their offices, to ensuring communities are staying safe and healthy. That’s why, when it comes to grants and funding, many agencies and departments may not be thinking of their long-term post-pandemic measurement and performance. Ensuring your agency is prepared for the single audit is more important than ever, especially when the CARES Act, along with many other grants awarded during this time, emphasizes transparency, performance, and accountability.
