What is Community Resiliency?
Communities are resilient when they are able to respond to, withstand, adapt, and recover from adverse situations. COVID-19 has created many challenges for northern communities and community service organizations: it has changed how you deliver services, communicate with members, and run programming. COVID-19 has also surfaced new, health and wellness needs within communities that organizations can address.
This funding is a one-time support for groups and organizations who need assistance adapting their practices and/or responding to new community health and wellness needs. All proposed use of funds MUST abide by provincial public health orders, notices, and guidance for COVID-19. Grants are available for a maximum of $5,000
