The League welcomed more than 30 grant writers and other municipal officials to its North Little Rock headquarters Thursday, March 6 for a one-day workshop in observance of Grant Professionals Day. Led by Caran Curry, League senior grants counsel, the free event provided an opportunity to discuss the status of federal and state agency grants amid the Trump administration’s federal funding freeze and the courts’ rulings in its wake. Curry was pleased with the level of participation, she said. “Most participants reported that they learned a lot about new grant resources, gained a better understanding of the status of grants under the new administration, and left the session excited to put what they learned into action.” For those who could not attend but would like to know more, a new grants class on this topic is now available on the ACE Hub.
