A Nonprofit Checklist: What to Do When Your Federal Grant or Contract is Terminated
Posted by National Council of Nonprofits on April 15, 2025
The National Council of Nonprofits recognizes these are uncertain times and that many nonprofits rely on federal funding for their programs. We will be providing additional information as we learn more about the impact of the Administration’s actions on federal grants and contracts.
Here are some initial steps that nonprofits should engage in when they learn that their federal grant or contract is terminated by a federal agency. While the full steps that should be taken, and the rules that apply, will be specific to your grant or contract and the specific federal agency that provided the funding, this checklist will provide a strong basis for next steps and understanding your rights.
