AVCP Burial Assistance — up to $2,500

AVCP pays up to $2,500 directly to the funeral home / vendor toward burial costs for a relative of the deceased who lived in a compacted village within the last six months and shows financial need; up to $400 of unused benefit can go to funeral-feast items. It does not cover family travel. If the state medical examiner took the body to Anchorage, the State pays to send it home. Benefits Division 907-543-8650 / 907-543-8836, Benefits-Division@avcp.org.
