US Treasury Changes ARPA Rules, Grants All Tribes $1 Million

   When the federal government released its first ruling on how American Rescue Plan Act Funds would be distributed, each federally recognized tribe was slated to receive a minimum of $1 million, plus more money based on an algorithm of how many employees they had and their tribal enrollment numbers.      Tribes had to have a minimum of 10 employees to be eligible for the $1 million base amount. This disqualified many Alaska Native tribes from receiving that money because many Alaska Native tribes, including in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, don’t have 10 employees. That’s because many Tribes compact with nonprofits like the Y-K Delta’s Association of Village Council Presidents. By compacting, the tribes outsource much of their office work to an organization like AVCP. In turn, AVCP provides administrative support and social services to participating tribes.
