In today’s dynamic federal funding environment, grant terminations are becoming more frequent and fast-moving due to evolving national priorities and budget realignments. Participants will learn how to prepare for discretionary or early terminations, manage compliance risks, and implement effective communication and documentation strategies when funding is cut short. Whether you're managing a complex program or overseeing grant oversight, this session offers practical tools to stay agile and compliant amid federal transitions.

Learning Objectives:

• Identify the regulatory requirements for federal grant terminations, including the distinctions between terminations for cause, convenience, and mutual agreement.
• Analyze how recent federal policy and budgetary shifts have impacted the frequency, timing, and process of grant terminations.
• Develop strategies to manage early or unexpected terminations, including documentation practices, internal communication protocols, and risk mitigation planning to ensure compliance and continuity.
