Application process for on-the-land support now open
Applications open today for funding to support summer on-the-land activities for beneficiaries living in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region.
Time spent on the land is an opportunity to be with family and friends. It’s a time to focus on culture, healing and strengthening family bonds. This funding makes it easier for IFA beneficiaries living in the region to reconnect to the land and, in so doing, to who they are.
The first deadline for applications is July 3, 2025 at 5:00PM – MST
Vouchers will be ready for use in stores on Friday, July 11.
If you need more time to complete your on-the-land application, you can submit an application until the program closes on July 10 at 5:00PM – MST. With this final deadline, vouchers will be available in stores by Friday, July 18.
