The State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Obligation Deadline Looms. Have You Done All You Can Do?
December 31, 2024, deadline to obligate State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) under the American Rescue Plan Act. On January 1, 2025, billions of unobligated funds will have to be returned to the U.S. Department of the Treasury, meaning that nonprofits will lose access to a funding source to address workforce shortages, decreases in revenue, increases on operating expenses, and other challenges that SLFRF can help address. Missing this opportunity does not have to happen, but action is needed now!
Getting It Done
A mantra posted on the walls of several offices at the National Council of Nonprofits reads: “What’s the problem? What’re the solutions? Let’s get them done.” Our colleagues at the North Carolina Center for Nonprofits are living that mantra in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. Their actions are a quintessential lesson in Advocacy in Action!
