The WTPP is able to offer incentives (approximately $5.00 each - not to exceed $1000 per tribe) for survey participants.Applications are available on a first-come basis. Tribes may apply for both the Community Readiness AND the Casino Economic Impact Survey. If you intend to apply for both, fill out separate applications for each survey.
