"Federal & Foundation Assistance Monitor" is a news service (or newsletter) produced in Silver Spring, MD by CD Publications.

"FAM" reports on public and private sources of funding for community programs, including education, youth services and health care. It also covers activities of Congress and federal agencies.

History

CD Publications began publishing housing-related newsletters in 1961, starting with "Housing Affairs Letter". The company branched out into senior affairs with "Aging News Alert" in 1984, and into grant-seeking with "Federal Assistance Monitor" in 1986.

In January 2001, the company acquired "Federal Research Report" from Silver Spring-based Business Publishers, Inc., and folded it into "Federal Assistance Monitor".

In mid-2006, the newsletter's title was changed to "Federal & Foundation Assistance Monitor", reportedly to indicate that coverage had been expanded to include private funding. The pub's masthead was clumsily altered with a carrot (^) pointing to the phrase "& Foundation" being squeezed into the title. This was replaced with a new masthead in late December '06.

Current Coverage

"FAM" posts federal funding announcements, private grants, legislative actions toward community programs, policy news and proposal-writing tips. It also covers fundraising workshops sponsored by the Foundation Center, the Support Center and other agencies.

Expansion

In 2007, "FAM" was changed to a web-based format and, along with CD Publications' other funding news services, was moved onto the web portal GrantsandFunding.net.
