Tribal members, Due to the recent number of outbreaks within several departments of the Shawnee campus, the Executive Committee has agreed that no visitors would be allowed during the Special EC meeting, 10/7/2020.  Please understand we are here to protect all tribal members as well as the staff that will be in attendance.  You may review the agenda on the web page as well as the meeting video.  This video will upload immediately following the meeting.

  On behalf of the Absentee Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma, the Executive Committee has established the following COVID-19 Relief Funds Programs.  The Executive Committee understands the impact this pandemic has had on our AST community and wants nothing more than to help serve our people. With this being said, the following programs have been opened on 9/28/2020:     COVID-19 Energy Assistance Program: The COVID-19 Energy Assistance Program is designed to help alleviate the risk of energy utility service disconnection (i.e. electricity, gas, propane or heating oil/wood).  Details and the application can be found at:  COVID-19 Energy Assistance Program     COVID-19 Home Relief Program: The Absentee Shawnee COVID-19 Home Relief Program is designed to decrease evictions/foreclosures, prevent homelessness and increase home stability by helping Absentee Shawnee families whose income has been adversely affected by COVID-19. Details and the application can be found at: COVID-19 Home Relief Program        

The Absentee Shawnee Tribe intended to move to Phase 2 of our Recovery Plan on September 1.  However, out of an abundance of caution, the Executive Committee (EC) has decided to postpone that date.  The EC will reconvene on Tuesday, September 8th to determine the safest course of action for our tribal members and employees.  We will keep you updated on our plans as soon as more information can be provided.
