(Recorded Webinar) Getting Cost Allocation and Indirect Cost Rates Right in Head Start Programs (October 2015)

Many Head Start and Early Head Start programs have numerous funding streams, such as federal Head Start funds and state funding. With the myriad of funding sources that programs juggle, following the federal rules for cost allocation carefully and appropriately has never been more important. If a grantee fails to follow these rules correctly, it can result in monitoring findings, cost disallowances, and additional penalties.
