The below registration information is for in-person application workshops to be held in Washington, DC on February 27 and March 1, 2017.

Please note that the CDFI Fund is also scheduling a series of webinars to provide guidance to applicants unable to attend the in-person workshops.

More information about these additional training opportunities will be provided after the Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) is released.
