About This Webinar

With funding streams evolving and financial accountability under increasing scrutiny, understanding how indirect costs fit into your organization’s budget has never been more important. The Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement (NICRA) can be a powerful tool to strengthen your nonprofit’s financial foundation, but many organizations are unsure how it works or whether it applies to them. In this informative session, you’ll explore:

• The purpose and structure of indirect cost rates (NICRA)
• How cost allocation supports transparency and sustainability
• Key considerations for determining if a NICRA is right for your organization

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of cost allocation and NICRA, ready to engage in informed discussions with funders, enhance your organization’s financial stability, and build long-term confidence in managing indirect costs.
