We’re empowering community members to be self-sufficient.
When people are healthy, housed and educated, they can become financially stable. Their wellbeing improves, and they can plan for their futures. We help community members build their economic self-sufficiency–from preschool to graduation, health insurance to housing.
Programmatic connections
We work alongside Alaska nonprofits, faith organizations, private workplaces and community members. Together, we support people seeking to become economic self-sufficiency. Our help often connects people to programs and assistance to develop their financial stability.
Grant funds and other investments
Opportunities for municipal, state, federal and endowment grants abound. We apply for ones that pertain to our focuses, programs and initiatives. Some funding is allowed or specifically tagged to be passed onto community members facing financial hardships community.
Free tax preparations
Connecting Alaskans with free tax preparations is one way we’re helping them achieve financial stability. By calling Alaska 211, filers can schedule appointments with IRS-certified volunteers. They’ll learn if they qualify for refunds or credits and can access help year-round.
