EPA Community Change Grant selectees have a number of pre-award requirements and milestones to meet before signing their cooperative agreements with EPA, as well as programmatic and financial compliance requirements once the project begins. Please reach out for help:
- We offer pro bono 1:1 support, please email epa-support@trccompanies.com.
- We have created an Introduction and Checklist to guide entities through grant negotiations and to grant award acceptance.
- We host biweekly Group Learning Sessions on Thursdays from 2-3 pm ET so selectees can ask questions, connect with other selectees, and exchange information. If your entity has been selected for a CCG award and you would like to join these sessions, please reach out to genesis.sanchez@
environmentalprotectionnetwork .org. Resources that have been presented during Learning Sessions include: - A Build America Buy America (BABA) presentation
- A Federal Procurement and DBRA presentation
- An Audits and Site Visits presentation
- Letter templates for government representative outreach and support
Please keep in mind that feedback on the current resources and suggestions for additional materials are welcome. Please send an email to kathy.pope@environmentalprotectionnetwork.org if you have recommendations.
Also, on Wednesday, September 11, 2024, we held a webinar to go over the Introduction and Checklist steps, provide information, and answer questions. If you were unable to attend, you can now access the webinar slides and a recording.
