VOS Community Support
Tribal Wellness is currently being offered through early to mid December @ $1,000/VOS member
Tribal wellness is provided to support healthy lifestyle activities for yourself.
Subsistence Support is currently being offered through early to mid December @ $1,000/VOS member
Subsistence support is to support yourself/household in any means to encourage subsistence activities where ever you reside. We cannot support gun/ammo purchases.
Here’s the NEWS:
VOS has recognized that not everyone is able to conduct subsistence activities due to their lifestyle and/or disabilities/locations, etc.
VOS has also recognized that some members ONLY conduct subsistence activities and not Tribal wellness activities (which, if you think about it - subsistence support is technically a healthy lifestyle choice;)
***IF, you have funds remaining within one or the other for the 2024 year, please utilize the remaining amounts in the other support program to ensure VOS is able to provide the support directly to you, as VOS has the funds currently. VOS wants to support and encourage you to enjoy subsistence and healthy lifestyle choices, if you have questions on the eligible activities, please reach out to Deilah directly at deilah@villageofsolomon.org or you may also reach her on the FB page, Deilah Solomon Enviro.
Example: Deilah has $600 remaining in tribal wellness, but needs additional fishing/crabbing gear - has $0 left in subsistence support. Deilah can move her $600 toward subsistence activities instead of using any more funds for tribal wellness.
If you and your family are not able to pay the upfront cost of the activity and would like VOS to pay the upfront cost rather than be reimbursed, as both programs are REIMBURSEMENT BASIS PROGRAMS, then by REQUEST only, VOS may be able to pay upfront on behalf of you to ensure you are able to take advantage of these programs designed to serve you.
Please also let Deilah or Sherri, by email know if this is necessary. We will do whatever we can to support you, as our community.
