Across America, businesses struggled to stay afloat during the COVID-19 pandemic. Brick-and-mortar businesses tried to continue operations by adopting alternative methods of delivering goods and services, especially by electronic means. Entertainment businesses, including casinos, were hit particularly hard. Online delivery of entertainment can’t provide the same experience that live entertainment can, if at all. Because they rely heavily on casino and other entertainment revenue rather than on tax revenue, Native American tribes’ budgets were decimated.

Financial assistance that tribal organizations provide to their members is critically important now more than ever because of hardships brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. Social services programs that provide financial assistance to tribal members such as clothing grants, technology grants, academic achievement awards, TANF programs and per capita distributions are important benefits to the health and well-being of many Native American families. The challenge for every tribal office is providing timely delivery of financial assistance in an efficient and cost-effective way while at the same time assuring that the funds are spent in accordance with the programs’ social services intent, (e.g., clothing grant funds are spent on clothing).

The expansion of tribal sovereignty through education is frequently overlooked. Tribes often lack the capital or other resources to start tribally-owned schools—an extremely costly endeavor that does not typically generate much revenue. But those challenges did not stop dedicated Comanche Nation citizens, descendants, and supporters. Utilizing a unique Oklahoma law that allows tribes to be the direct authorizers of tribal charter schools, the Comanche Nation is increasing its ability to define and create its own educational goals for its children.
