Jordan’s Principle Funding Assistance
Jordan’s Principle funding is available for First Nations children who have unmet health and wellness needs. Children with disabilities, addiction, mental health, or social needs, may be able to access this funding for things like treatment programs, wheelchair ramps, specialized hearing aids, medical equipment, land-based activities, teaching assistants, or other programs, services, or devices deemed necessary. Accessing this funding can be difficult and the DGG is pleased to offer support to families who want to submit an application. Please contact the Jordan’s Principle Coordinator at 867-589-3003 extension 1400 or patricia.modeste@gov.deline.ca. The office is located in the Wellness Centre beside the big church.
