Federal Grant Symposium
Grants Symposium and Alaska Infrastructure Planning and Assistance
As the federal government further develops its implementation plan for the infrastructure package, we’re pleased to see Senator Murkowski’s announcement of a Grants Symposium on April 11. We encourage Alaska municipal and Tribal officials to attend, as well as key nonprofit, utility, and university leaders. It’s a great opportunity to learn more and build relationships that matter.
To really make the most of the opportunity, we invite attendees to stay on for a conversation on Infrastructure Planning and Assistance on April 12. Also held at the Dena’ina Center, this collaborative effort is focused on maximizing the benefits to Alaska by working through thematic, regional, and focused discussions that will strengthen our ability to be successful.
For the Symposium on the 11th, you can register on the Senator’s site. Please register below for the event on the 12th, and you can let us know if you’re attending the day prior, too. We’re looking forward to seeing everyone for these events.
