Summary

The bill changes how California defines a grant, expands the types of organizations that can receive it, and adds new penalty rules when agencies pay late. It also creates a system for reimbursing nonprofit indirect costs at their negotiated rates. The goal is to make sure grant recipients are paid promptly and fully for the costs of providing services.
