Center for Nonprofit Management and SoCal Grantmakers would like to invite you to a virtual workshop that will provide an overview of the FEMA Public Assistance (PA) program that non-profits may be eligible for. This will include the updates on the Small Business Administration (SBA) Program that can provide low-interest loans to non-profits and may be required for the application for PA. In addition, we will provide an overview of the FEMA Individual and Households Program (IHP) and the way non-profits can be engaged to meet the unmet needs of survivors through the Long-Term Recovery Group (LTRG) process. This will allow for Q & A with the subject matter experts from these programs.

Se ofrecerá interpretación simultánea en español y en lenguaje de señas americano (ASL).

Live Spanish and ASL interpretation will be provided.

We hope to address the questions below and more:

· Who can nonprofits contact for further guidance or technical assistance with these programs?
