FOIA Compliance in Education: Leveraging Stimulus Funds for Response Technology

The American Rescue Plan Act includes over $162.4 billion dollars in support of Institutions of Higher Education and K-12 as they continue to navigate the Coronavirus Pandemic, but did you know that schools can also collaborate with their state or local government to access monies from the $350 billion available for the Coronavirus State & Local Fiscal Recovery Fund?

With the new Omicron variant and infection rates – once again – on the rise, in order to facilitate rapid and effective response or mitigation efforts, effortless communication and collaboration are pivotal. Public districts, colleges, and universities need now, more than ever, a means to manage their mass-correspondence and share records with collaborating public health agencies and the broader public while maintaining student privacy.

Join Grants Office and special guests from GovQA as we review the latest developments in record management software solutions for K-12 and Higher Education Institutions and outline how these can be funded with available ARPA stimulus monies. We’ll even provide some best practice tips for putting together your stimulus funding proposal in support of your next records project.
