Social Assistance recipients NOT required to contact Client-Based Services this month

04/21/2020

Due to the ongoing pandemic, the Mohawk Council of Kahnawà:ke’s Client-Based Services (CBS) wishes to advise all Social Assistance recipients that they will not be required to contact CBS regarding the regular monthly cheque stub return (scheduled for the 15th and 25th).  
 
The decision was made since the employment situations of the overwhelming majority of those who have been receiving Social Assistance are likely unchanged due to the current economic climate. 
 
The community will be advised when Social Assistance procedures can return to normal.
 
Additionally, please note that, since the Kahnawake Emergency Relief Measures Fund payments are being managed through Client-Based Services, these payments are also being printed onto the Social Assistance Program cheques. Recipients of these cheques are also not required to contact CBS.
 
Your cooperation is much appreciated at this time.
