How are benefits funded?

The Seneca-Cayuga Nation funds all operations and most programs using money earned by Grand Lake Casino and other tribe owned businesses. Federal grants fund some programs. Federal grants have various restrictions on how money can be used, which is why some programs can only be used by people living in certain areas or who meet other requirements.
