The Education and Social Services Department can also provide a Direct Purchase option for families unable to prepurchase school clothing and shoes for reimbursement. This program is tribally funded and administered through the Education and Social Services Department.

Eligibility:

Any Shawnee citizen enrolled in a state certified Head Start or Pre-K through 12th grade educational institution or program qualifies for this benefit. The citizen’s family income, location, or dual citizenship status are not used to determine eligibility for this benefit.
