NHI's response to covid-19: LOVING SERVICE SUPPORT
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Native Health Initiative (NHI), a partnership to address health inequities through Loving Service, wants to serve our community with the same love that funds and grounds all of our work. This will be a chance to connect NHIers who can meet each other's needs, as well as a chance for NHI to offer monetary support and connect families to services. Using the currency of love, those making requests will earn the support by offering their loving service back to the NHI community.
This response will provide resources and monetary funding primarily to the urban Indigenous communities of Albuquerque, but everyone is invited to APPLY.
Our unique LOVE approach includes:
- Financial assistance with to pay for rental property or home mortgage.
- Help pay or find funding for childcare services, to support the employees that have to work during this time.
- Financial assistance or established resources for electric, gas, or water bills.
- Offer wellness and physical movement support by virtual connection, through NHI’s Running Medicine – Creating Community through Virtual Movement.
- Offer Social Support
- Access to PPE: Do-It-Yourself/cloth face masks, gowns, and gloves/masks
