GAE2105. How Pandemic Funding is Being Used - a Report Out from the Pandemic Response Accountability Committee (PRAC)

The CARES Act created and tasked the Pandemic Response Accountability Committee with providing transparency and coordinated oversight of federal pandemic response funds—now totaling more than $5 trillion. Come learn more about our structure, what we have accomplished so far, and what we’ve learned in providing critical oversight of American tax dollars. The session will also discuss higher risk areas and fraud indicators related to pandemic funding as well as our Pandemic Analytics Center of Excellence, which was created to conduct data analysis and visualization; promote leading practices; share data, tools and services; and provide investigative support related to COVID-19 relief and response programs.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the pandemic relief funding provided by the Federal government
• Learn about the top management challenges faced by agencies in the pandemic
• Learn how the PRAC is fighting fraud, waste, and abuse of pandemic funds through our Pandemic Analytics Center of Excellence.
