Grant Writing & Funding

What’s really happening with federal grants right now—and what does it mean for your nonprofit?

In this behind-the-scenes episode, Rachel Werner of MyFedTrainer.com joins us for a “fly-on-the-wall” conversation recorded live with 

Academy and Mentorship students, who also had the opportunity to ask questions in real time. We break down recent changes in federal grant funding, including an overview of grant allocations over the past month and what nonprofits should be aware of in the current political landscape. We also discuss what organizations can do if their missions are not aligned with current Executive Orders, and how freelance grant writers can support nonprofits in navigating uncertainty during these times.

Plus, we dive into what the Continuing Resolution and federal budget deadlines—like March 14th—mean for the future of grant funding, and what you should be watching moving forward.

If you want to stay informed and proactive in a shifting federal funding environment, this episode delivers timely insights and practical guidance.
