Be Prepared for Grant Opportunities! The Grant Accountability and Transparency Act (GATA) provides uniform guidance for all State of Illinois grant programs. All grant applicants and grantees must comply with GATA grant requirements, which include the following steps before receiving a grant award: 

Pre-qualification on the GATA Grantee Portal 

Completion of two risk assessments (Internal Controls Questionnaire (ICQ) and Programmatic Risk Assessment (PRAQ)) 

This session will provide detailed information on all of the steps required as part of the GATA process and you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions. There is no cost, but registration is required.
