Cook Inlet Tribal Council is partnering with
Lutheran Social Services of Alaska to expand a stranded traveler program.
The program was started to help people who came to Anchorage for medical or other reasons get back to their villages.
With the tribe's donation of $25,000, Lutheran Social Services hopes to reach homeless people, or at-risk people, as well.
Cook Inlet Tribal Council is a non-profit social services organization that was created by
Cook Inlet Region Inc, an Alaska Native regional corporation.
