ATTENTION NISICHAWAYASIHK CREE NATION MEMBERS RESIDING OFF RESERVE
It has just been over a month since the Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation (NCN) declared a State of Emergency to prevent the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) into the community. During this time of self-isolation, travel restrictions and social distancing have been difficult for everyone.
In an effort to assist NCN citizens residing off reserve during this time, Chief and Council will be issuing a one time payment of $200.00 for the head of household (with proof of household ownership/lease/rent or Hydro bill with current address noted); or $50.00 for all displaced/homeless adults residing off reserve.
NCN has identified the following people, locations and dates to distribute these payments:
| LOCATION | DELIVERY DATE | CONTACT |
|---|---|---|
| Thompson | Starting April 24th, 2020 | Annette (204) 679-2960 Monica (204) 307-7357 Crystal (204) 679-5465 |
