The Kawerak General Assistance Program in Gambell, AK, is dedicated to providing crucial, income-based support to tribal members facing unmet needs. As a last resort for those who have exhausted all other resources, our program offers essential food assistance, clothing, shelter, and utility support to help individuals and families regain stability. We prioritize empowering eligible households to achieve self-sufficiency, particularly those with children under 18, who must also apply for the State of Alaska Temporary Assistance Program (ATAP). Our reach extends to the communities of Brevig Mission, Council, Diomede, Elim, Gambell, Golovin, King Island, Koyuk, Mary’s Igloo, Savoonga, Shaktoolik, Shishmaref, Solomon Stebbins, Saint Michael, Teller, Wales, and White Mountain. We are here to assist applicants in navigating compliance with other agencies, ensuring that they receive the support they need.
