Today at the AGA National PDT 2026, our President, Curtis Joachim, will be moderating a session called Grants in Flux: How Presidential Executive Orders Are Reshaping Funding Opportunities. The speakers for this session include Andrea Brandon, Linda Duffy, and Kathleen Kizior.
This session examines how executive orders (EOs) reshape federal grant funding and agency priorities. Participants will review grant fundamentals, understand EO authority and impacts, and explore recent policy shifts affecting climate, diversity initiatives, AI, immigration, and oversight. By joining, attendees will gain practical strategies to adapt, remain compliant, and stay competitive amid evolving grant requirements.
For those who can attend, we hope you can leave understanding the authority of EOs and their impact on federal grant priorities, identify key EO themes and targets and how they relate to administration priorities, recognize ripple effects on eligibility and compliance, and explore available tools like Grants.gov and the Federal Register to monitor funding changes.
We hope to see you in person or virtually soon.
