You Want a Statewide, Streamlined Grant Department? Move to Illinois!

Join our cohosts as we talk with Carol Kraus, former Director of Illinois’ Grant Accountability and Transparency Unit. With backing by the state’s legislature, this new unit worked with stakeholders, creating a streamlined grant process for all state grant programs, including federal pass through funding. Imagine a one stop shop for grant prospect research, grant application portals, and grant management regulations for every state agency. It’s like a dream come true, and Illinois set the standard for the rest of us to follow.
