Self-managed support updated
The grant content now focuses on Self-managed support instead of the previous Indigenous Affairs Grants Program content. It outlines who the program is for, how the monthly lump sum works, and what participants are responsible for when coordinating their services. The page also adds practical participation details, including the option to hire some family members, carry over unused funding within the same calendar year, and review the plan with a social worker at year-end. It advises interested clients to discuss the option with their social worker, keep a separate bank account, and maintain detailed spending records.
