Grants Management & Compliance

North Carolina state law (N.C.G.S. 143C-6-23 and 09 NCAC 03M) requires every non-state entity (including non-profit organizations, counties and local governments) that receives state or federal pass-through grant funds from state agencies to file annual reports on how those grant funds were used no later than three months after the end of the non-state entity’s fiscal year.  Reporting levels are based on the level of state financial assistance from all funding sources.
