Maximum Eligible Amount
Government Grant
Fund Type
Canada recognizes that First Nation, Inuit and Métis are among the most vulnerable, and that during this crisis, in particular, those in remote and fly-in only parts of the country are uniquely vulnerable. This is why we must support distinctions-based measures to improve public health response for Indigenous communities and provide them with the flexibility they need to address the specific needs identified by communities and their members.
These new funds will flow directly to Indigenous communities and groups across the country and will provide Indigenous leadership with the flexibility needed as they prepare for and react to the spread of COVID-19. These funds could be used for measures including, but not limited to: support for elders and vulnerable community members; measures to address food insecurity; educational and other support for children; mental health assistance and emergency response services; preparedness measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
