Introduction to the False Claims Act: What Federal Grantees Need to Know

The political and legal landscape for federal grantees is shifting fast; your mission shouldn’t have to. Recently, the administration signaled a new strategy: using a tool traditionally meant to stop fraud, the False Claims Act (FCA), to target nonprofits, municipalities, tribes, and other recipients of federal financial assistance for DEI-related activities.

FCA violations can result in significant financial penalties, loss of federal funding, and long-term damage to your organization’s standing. You and your organization don’t have to navigate this new pressure alone.

In this free, one-hour webinar, we are stripping away the legal jargon to give you a clear, plain-language roadmap.

We’ll cover:

  • The Basics: What the False Claims Act is, how it works, and why the administration is expanding its use against grantees.
  • How to Spot the Risks: How to assess whether your organization may have exposure.
  • How to Protect Yourself: Practical steps you can take now to protect your organization.
  • How to Respond: What to do (and what not to do) if you receive an FCA inquiry.

Whether you are a nonprofit director, a compliance officer, or a community organizer, this session is designed to help you understand this emerging risk and how to get ahead of it.
