Some more August light reading for you

Here's a full plate of updates, webcasts, and reports from the LISC newsletter.

Scroll way down for an interesting Senate Appropriations proposal to create a "technical assistance board" to "help local nonprofits access and manage HUD program funds." Which is interesting to see alongside the promotion of grant application workshops that we've just mentioned here. Of course two data points don't make a trend, but is it possible there's some kind of general campaign afoot to promote correct grant administration among small grant recipients? Maybe to avoid a repeat of the OTAG-ITAG kerfuffle?
