Technical Assistance & Training
On several occasions we have been invited by federal and state agencies to work with cities and towns to address and resolve findings of noncompliance related to Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and other program activities. We develop plans and procedures to correct issues and problems and train local staff to avoid them in the future. As a result, our clients are often allowed to re-access much needed funding.
