The GNWT Department of Finance rolled out its Evacuation Travel Support Program as of Tuesday.
The program provides funding for NWT residents who, by order, evacuated their home community by vehicle because of the 2023 wildfires.
Individuals are able to apply for a one-time payment of $750 if they drove out of the NWT. Evacuees who drove from their home community to another NWT community can apply for $450.
