If you have not received your Economic Support Payment check in the mail from the Tribe, stop by the Mescalero Community Center parking lot today, 12/18, starting at 10am to pick-up your check. Due to overwhelming mail at the Mescalero Post Office, the Tribal offices will have the checks to distribute.

For the drive-thru check distribution, please tell us if you 1) submitted the application on time, 2) submitted the application late or 3) haven’t submitted an application.

By telling us this, our helpers can locate your check in a timely manner.

Please remember to wear your mask and stay in your vehicle as this is a drive-thru check distribution.

Please bear with us and your cooperation is much appreciated!

Thank you and continue to be safe!

Special message from Lucy Rodriguez, VAW Counselor:

We can all attest that this past year has been extremely challenging for all of us, as we have all in one way or another suffered the effects of this devastating viral pandemic. Some of us have lost loved ones while yet others have had to endure the debilitating symptoms of the virus. Non-the-less, this pandemic has taken a toll on us all. Please know, that you do not have to suffer in silence. We are all in this together, and together we will prevail. With that said, I wanted to reiterate, that I am available for grief counseling as well as counseling for any other matters. I am a good listener as well as very approachable. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us in the VAWA office. We are here to assist, and I as a therapist am here to listen and help in any way possible.

For an appointment, please call the VAWA office at 575-464-0078/0079 and ask for Lucy Rodriguez or call the following cell phone number directly: 575-973-0226. I am available 24/7.

Very Respectfully,

Lucy Rodriguez

VAWA Counselor

NOTE: Lucy, who is the counselor, received a phone call last night, from someone who recently lost a family member and they had a lengthy session. We would like people to know Lucy is available to provide counseling during these very difficult times.
