After tax revenue, federal funds are states’ largest funding source, according to the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO). If managed properly, state grant revenue can positively impact everything from education to healthcare. Unfortunately, mismanagement of grants is still all too common at the state level.

“In 2016 alone, the federal government (GAO) disbursed nearly $5.5 billion in grant awards to states and local governments. However, almost $1 billion in undisbursed funding remained in grant accounts.”
