Kawerak is offering one-time disaster relief to eligible residents who experienced loss or damage to subsistence cabins, smoke houses, drying racks or outhouses from Typhoon Merbok. This funding is for disaster relief not covered by federal, state or other disaster funding sources; therefore, it will not be counted against any other federal, state or other funding.
Eligibility: Full-time residents of the Bering Strait region in impacted communities are eligible to apply. Tribal affiliation is not a requirement.
