Sayisi Dene First Nation Relocation Settlement Trust
2021 Food Security Funding Program

Under the terms of the Sayisi Dene First Nation Relocation Settlement Trust Agreement, signed on May 16, 2016, one of the approved uses of Trust Property is to fund Healthy Food Programs. Healthy Food Programs are those set up by the Trustees to support the health and wellbeing of our members. The Trustees understand that our members are struggling to access healthy foods. Many access issues are a result of the Covid-19 global pandemic still effecting supply chains and food prices.  The Trustees have set up a new 2021 Food Security Funding Program that will allow members to access funds to support the purchase of healthy foods for themselves and their children.

In order to support the wellbeing and nutritional needs of our members, we are immediately implementing a food security funding program that will allow our members 18 and over to access funds individually for (“Food Security Funding”). The Food Security Funding can be spent at a retailer of the member’s choice.
