SUMMARY:Inside the SBA's Full-Scale 8(a) Audit: What Participants Need to Know Now
DESCRIPTION:In early December\, the SBA issued formal data and document requests to all certified 8(a) Business Development Program participants—marking the first major step in the “immediate and full-scale audit” the agency announced in June 2025. These requests are driven largely by recent online media publications attacking the 8(a) Program with allegations of purported (but as-yet unproven) widespread fraud. The scrutiny on the 8(a) Program is intensifying\, and 8(a) companies could face collateral damage during and after the audit process.  \n\n\n\nJoin PilieroMazza’s Matt Feinberg and Meghan Leemon for this can’t-miss webinar as they cover what this heightened scrutiny means for current and future 8(a) participants—and share a high-level overview of steps you can take now to protect your business.  \n\n\n\nLearning objectives include:  \n\n\n\n\nthe SBA’s latest requests\, \n\n\n\nwhat participants should expect in the coming months\, and \n\n\n\npractical guidance for responding to audits\, investigations\, inquiries\, and potential litigation.

SUMMARY:Overview of Treasury Final Rules: General Welfare Exclusion & Wholly Owned Tribal Entities
DESCRIPTION:Join NAFOA for a webinar examining the finalization of Treasury rules on the General Welfare Exclusion Act and Tribal Wholly-Owned Corporate Entities—groundbreaking regulations that promise to transform Tribal economic development and provide long-awaited tax certainty for Indian Country.  \n\n\n\nAnnounced on December 15\, 2025\, these rules are the result of years of sustained Tribal advocacy and consultation with the Treasury Tribal Advisory Committee. They affirm Tribal sovereignty by granting Tribes deference in determining general welfare benefits. The rules explicitly exempt wholly-owned Tribally chartered corporations from federal income tax and recognize Tribal authority to make special needs determinations on par with states.  \n\n\n\nSpeakers will break down the key provisions of each regulation and explore their practical implications for Tribal finance operations and economic development strategies. We will address implementation considerations\, including IRS training requirements and audit suspensions. Explanation of this final guidance will assist Tribes with leveraging this tax clarity to strengthen their economies while maintaining sovereign authority when designing welfare programs or structuring business entities.

SUMMARY:Behavioral Health Integration Webinar Series: Integrating Substance Use Treatment into Integrated Care Settings
DESCRIPTION:Patients diagnosed with substance use disorder (SUD) frequently encounter stigma in their personal lives as well as in clinical settings. Consequently\, establishing a foundation of trust between these patients and their care teams presents both a significant challenge and a critical necessity. Integrated care settings offer distinct advantages that can be leveraged to support SUD patients\, distinguishing them from non-integrated environments. This discourse will examine effective methodologies for integrating the treatment of SUD patients within the framework of integrated care settings.  \n\n\n\nObjectives: 1. Identify SUD signs\, symptoms\, and associated health conditions. 2. Examine unique challenges and opportunities for treating SUD patients in integrated care settings. 3. Evaluate the role of trust-building in enhancing the effectiveness of clinical care for SUD patients within integrated care setting.  \n\n\n\nCredits: 1 hour of ACCME\, ANCC\, AAPA\, ASWB\, APA To receive a certificate of continuing education\, you must electronically sign-in for the session\, participate in the entire live internet activity and complete the online evaluation. You will be able to print your certificate after completing the evaluation. The evaluation for this session will close two weeks from the date of the webinar.
