Annual Report for 2016
Program Administration
The Tribal Business Council of the Spokane Tribe of Indians will have overall administrative authority for the STOI TANF Program Program management will be delegated to the Tribal Administration
The Tribe
The Spokane Tribe of Indians is a federally recognized Indian Tribe located on the 159000 acre Spokane Indian Reservation in a remote portion of northeast Washington State The Spokane Reservation is rural in character located 50 miles away from the nearest urban area of Spokane Washington There are three distinct communities on the 35-mile wide Reservation West End Ford and Wellpinit The on-Reservation population is 2094 of which 1661 are enrolled Tribal members (2012 US Census) Total tribal member enrollment as of March 2013 was 2839 There is a significant off-reservation population of Tribal members who reside in the City of Spokane
The Reservation was established in 1881 by Executive Order of President Rutherford B Hayes As established the Reservation contained 159000 acres As in the past natural resources are protected by the Spokane Indians The Spokane Indian Reservation consists of 108874 acres of forest 8552 acres of agricultural land and 10328 acres of lakes The town of Wellpinit is the main population center and the seat of Tribal government The terrain of the Reservation is generally forested mountains with water forming three of its boundaries Tshimikin Creek is the eastern border the Spokane River is the southern border and the Columbia River is the western border Until Grand Coulee Dam was completed on the Columbia River in 1940 the Spokane people relied on migrating salmon runs as the mainstay of their diets and indeed as a central focus of their cultural practices and their economy
According to written history the Spokane Tribe originally lived on three million acres of land in eastern Washington The Spokane Indians fished the Spokane River used the grand Spokane Falls as a gathering place of family and friends The Spokanes lived along the river in three bands known as the Upper Middle and Lower Spokane Indians In January of 1881 President Rutherford B Hayes by executive order formally declared the Spokane Indian Reservation as the new and much smaller home of the Spokane Indians The three bands of Spokane Indians were split up and some found new homes in other areas such as the Coeur dAlene Indian Reservation the Flathead Indian Reservation and the Colville Indian Reservation
At present there are several indicators that portray significant distress among tribal members and in the community The tribal unemployment rate is 453 The poverty rate is 376 and per capita income is only $14287 In contrast the unemployment rate in Washington State is 49 and the poverty rate is 122 (US Census) These family stressors have deleterious effects on family functioning and cohesiveness leading to increased rates of domestic violence poor learning skills and school attendance among
children intensified use of drugs and alcohol and increased incidence of crime
However Spokane Indian tribal members and families remain resilient and continue to maintain close family ties and cultural connections In order for the Tribe to thrive and survive there must be a strong and enhanced infrastructure of support services social and economic development to create and support healthy families with access to living wage jobs and support services
Background
The Spokane Tribe of Indians (STOI) integrated the employment education and training programs January 1 2006 with our new approved plan from January 1 20015 - to December 31 2017 The programs are integrated as follows
Bureau of Indian Affairs bull General Assistance bull Higher Education bull Adult Education bull Johnson OMalley
Health and Human Services bull Temporary Assistance to Needy Families bull Childcare Development Fund-Mandatory bull Childcare Development Fund-Discretionary
Department of Labor bull WIA-Adult bull WIA-Youth
The plan integrates the above programs into a one-stop employment and training services program that serves the service areas and population as defined in agency plans These areas include the Spokane Indian Reservation and six (6) surrounding counties in Eastern Washington consisting of Stevens Lincoln Adams Whitman Spokane Pend Oreille There are currently two (2) locations providing services on site in Wellpinit WA which is on the Spokane Indian Reservation serving as the Tribes headquarters and one site in Spokane WA where a majority of the service population resides Together these locations serve approximately 650 clients at any given time

Goals and Objectives
Job placement of not less than 50 adult participants and special assistance recipients was not accomplished Participants hired by using both the sub wage phase I and II and apprenticeship program 25 adult participants were hired the programs biggest challenge was working with clients who have criminal records and finding employers willing to work with them Additionally there is little funding available to provide support services so work incentives and work clothing is highly restrictive The biggest employer on the reservation is the Spokane Tribe Until recently the Tribes own hiring policies and procedures were very restrictive for example every job announced required the applicant to have a drivers license and be in good standing This was true even for jobs that did not require the employee to drive Also the Tribes criminal history policy still restricts employees with certain convictions from working for the tribe However the Tribe has started allowing the enterprises to hire some employees with criminal convictions depending on the nature of the job and the conviction
Higher Education recipients during 20142015 year reported approximately one student that completed their Masters degree seven students completed their Bachelor Degrees two completed their Associate of Arts degree and five receiving Vocational Degrees
The program was able to financially assist approximately 118 Tribal members in pursuing a higher education or participation in an Adult Vocational Program The program was also able to provide a small stipend for living expenses however the amount was not effective in eliminating this financial barrier
Unmet Needs
The most significant unmet need continues to be Welfare Assistance and Higher Education
The General Assistance programs $291 monthly stipend does not provide enough for living expenses GA is a job training program but does not provide any monetary support services Clients receive coaching resume writing and job training from the Career Development Specialists If a client is offered a job but must have specialized clothing or equipment they are referred to the American Indian Center usually though the client is unable to purchase the equipment or clothing until their first paycheck We anticipate that the funding is not going to be increased but we still need to meet this need Our future plan is to offer $200 annually in support services by decreasing the number of GA clients we can serve The funding we save will be used to provide the support services This decision was made at the end of 2016 the impact will be recorded in next years report
Education is an unmet need because Pell Grants remain the same but tuition fees increase by an average of 12 every year The Education Program is also enjoying a steady increase of applicants More Tribal members are seeking degrees or certificates the increase is being seen
I
in both traditional and non-traditional students There is an increase in graduate students as well unfortunately graduate students have not been awarded funding for both Fall 2016 and Winter 2017 due to undergraduate projections conveying insufficient funding to sustain both undergraduates and graduates Per current policy graduate funding is contingent upon availability of funds and undergraduate funding takes precedence
The following are the amounts awarded per student each academic year
Undergraduate bull $8500 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $3000 stipend (cap) eligible for only full-time students working less than 31 hours per
week bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Graduate bull $10000 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Another reason to increase funds for higher education is that the unemployment rate within the interior boundaries of the Spokane Indian Reservation (SIR) is 453 However there are many professionaltechnical positions that pay a livable wage but are currently occupied by nontribal members Some departments in this predicament are DNR Preservation Building and Planning Accounting IT GIS Legal and even the Wellpinit School District to name a few
Additionally Governor Inslee concurs with the US Department of Interiors determination granting the Spokane Tribe of Indians the authority to build and operate a gaming facility known as the STEP project What this means is in the very near future a plethora of professional andor technical positions will be available ie hotel and hospitality management Human Resources HVAC slot attendants accounting gaming and so forth These positions will require a college or technical degree The Education Department has been working with the Salish College and TERO to develop professional certificate programs that will be available to Tribal members interested in working in jobs related to the STEP project
The overall long-term goal for higher education is to continue financially supplementing the costs of college for tribal members who are pursuing their higher education This assistance will ease some of the financial burden that accompanies the pursuit of a college degree assist in keeping student loan debt limited (although this is a financial decision only the individual has control over) and finally enable them to complete their higher education and find gainful employment in a professional field that pays a livable wage
This will contribute to the attainment and sustainability of self-sufficiency in addition to finding self-respect and independence through their pursuit and completion of their pursuit and completion of their higher education endeavors Overall the program assists in diminishing poverty and suppression that plague Indian Nations across the United States
Should future manufacturing or production occur within the interior boundaries of the reservation tribal members with a higher education andor vocational training will likely meet the qualifications for upper level professional positions (which are typically filled by non-tribal members presently) as opposed to the lower paid positions
Also per the Bureau of Labor Statistics Current Population Survey (assessed 15 October 2015 form wwwstudentaidgov) the higher the level of education the lower percentage rate for unemployment
Overall Tribal members with a college degree working within either the interior or exterior boundaries of the SIR are not only beneficial but contributing factors in releasing our people from suppression and poverty
Program Activities
GED Throughout the year 2015 GED had 65 participants Out of the 65 students 5 earned their GED The program currently employs one traveling GED instructor who has assigned appointments at both the Well pinit and Spokane sites 477 TANF clients who do not have a GED are required to work towards obtaining their GED by agreeing to spend up to 20 hours per week in participation hours as part of their ISP in attending GED class and studying Our programs 1 priority for our clients is to assist them in obtaining and education and removing barriers so they can accomplish their educational goals
Tutoring
Barriers to student success continue to be reading writing and math levels The Wellpinit School District reported that students would be more successful if they had access to reading programs throughout the year The program began offering professional tutoring services to any student who qualifies additionally case workers will refer clients who need additional help based on their current grades Since the program began offering professional tutoring there has been an increase in better grades and study habits for those students attending as reported by the Wellpinit School District
Youth Employment
Youth Employments busiest time is during the summer months employing up to 230 youth both on and off the reservation During the school year a handful of students work year round Also the length of employment per summer youth was cut to one five week session In order to be eligible to work a student has to demonstrate an ability to maintain a 2 0GPA be enrolled full time in school and be age 18 or a senior in high school The work experience the youth receive during the summer provides opportunity for them to increase their skills and work in a field they may one day choose to study While the youth learn valuable work experience the program continues to place a high standard on students achieving educational goals therefore
each year program requirements for participation will include higher educational standards for participation Beginning in 2017 summer youth employees are required to have graduated with a 20 Falling below that level will require the youth to work part time and attend tutoring part time Our ultimate goal will be to raise the standard to 25 with a 95 success rate by all youth
During the 2016 summer employment 14 year olds and those new to the program were required to work Crew This youth program requires that the employee spends part time in the field working landscaping and part time in job training classes Youth Employees also toured several manufacturing companies in the Spokane area where almost every Human Resource officer explained that what they look for in a potential employee is a person with a great work ethic and great attitude
Youth Activities
The youth activities primarily consist of an after school program in Spokane and at two centers on the reservation Ford and West End The after school programs include educational hour reading assistance homework club culture and crafts drama club and health and wellness The participants earn incentives which allow them to participate in off-site learning activities such as attending the Mobius Science Center or learning what is involved in putting on a professional theatrical performance by touring the Childrens Theater and meeting the behind the scene employees They also participate in cultural exchange programs with not only local tribes but with other cultures such as learning to Hula with Kuulei
Child Care
Childcare is provided at each of our 477 TANF sites consisting of two licensed centers a Head Start Preschool and a Salish Immersion school which opened in 2016 The childcare program entered into a partnership with the Wellpinit School District to provide professional development services to the childcare staff The staff received support for ECEDamp 107 Health Safety and Nutrition and ECEDamp 105 Introduction to Early Childhood Education in the Spring Quarter of 2016 April 4thth thru June 17th These services were contracted through the Spokane Falls Community College as a result almost all of the child care staff working on the reservation have at least an M degree Wellpinit School District in an effort to improve their district report card are providing support for staff development for those staff who are our childrens first teacher outside of the home In addition to the partnership the child care program continues to work with Early Achievers the centers achieved a rating of a 4 this year up from 3 last year The highest rating possible is a 5 with continued staff development we hope to achieve a level 5
TANF
The types of services available to our 477 TANF clients consist of GED Tutoring assistance and testing fees license and liability insurance drivers license renewalreinstatement rental assistance job readiness and basic needs support services along with a monthly cash grant
Utilizing the Tribal Assistance system (TAS) we have the ability to create a central data base of information for multiple service components The system is centered on the individual participant where common information is gathered once on an individual and shared by all internal case manager When client information changes it only has o be update once to be accessible by all using TAS Their capability allows us to provide a higher level of service to all participants A case plan is developed with the assistance of the participant and is complete only when the client and program staff have signed and dated the document We use the case plan or Individual Success Plan (ISP) to formalize a contract between the program and the participant to map out the journey from welfare to work For those who are not job ready immediately or who do not obtain employment right away the plan becomes a longer-term planning tool that may focus on further job search obtaining GED or drivers license etc Case Mangers demonstrate involving each participant with development of a ISP that establishes the individual participants goals

Barriers to Success or Challenges
The challenges we face are not unique to other Tribal programs our clients not only face economic challenges but they also must overcome generational trauma systemic poverty and limited resources to meet their economic circumstances
Most residents live in poverty and are faced with persistent high unemployment and severe underemployment as the norm Jobs are few and those available our clients do not usually meet the minimum educational requirements This means relocating to areas that have employment at their skill and educational level available However the tie to the reservation
and the desire to return is often strong for those that have been raised here and those who have had to leave most of their extended family behind in such a move is difficult
Our goal remains to serve our people by offering culturally relevant programming in a way that allows our people to feel empowered

Annual Report for 2016
Program Administration
The Tribal Business Council of the Spokane Tribe of Indians will have overall administrative authority for the STOI TANF Program Program management will be delegated to the Tribal Administration
The Tribe
The Spokane Tribe of Indians is a federally recognized Indian Tribe located on the 159000 acre Spokane Indian Reservation in a remote portion of northeast Washington State The Spokane Reservation is rural in character located 50 miles away from the nearest urban area of Spokane Washington There are three distinct communities on the 35-mile wide Reservation West End Ford and Wellpinit The on-Reservation population is 2094 of which 1661 are enrolled Tribal members (2012 US Census) Total tribal member enrollment as of March 2013 was 2839 There is a significant off-reservation population of Tribal members who reside in the City of Spokane
The Reservation was established in 1881 by Executive Order of President Rutherford B Hayes As established the Reservation contained 159000 acres As in the past natural resources are protected by the Spokane Indians The Spokane Indian Reservation consists of 108874 acres of forest 8552 acres of agricultural land and 10328 acres of lakes The town of Wellpinit is the main population center and the seat of Tribal government The terrain of the Reservation is generally forested mountains with water forming three of its boundaries Tshimikin Creek is the eastern border the Spokane River is the southern border and the Columbia River is the western border Until Grand Coulee Dam was completed on the Columbia River in 1940 the Spokane people relied on migrating salmon runs as the mainstay of their diets and indeed as a central focus of their cultural practices and their economy
According to written history the Spokane Tribe originally lived on three million acres of land in eastern Washington The Spokane Indians fished the Spokane River used the grand Spokane Falls as a gathering place of family and friends The Spokanes lived along the river in three bands known as the Upper Middle and Lower Spokane Indians In January of 1881 President Rutherford B Hayes by executive order formally declared the Spokane Indian Reservation as the new and much smaller home of the Spokane Indians The three bands of Spokane Indians were split up and some found new homes in other areas such as the Coeur dAlene Indian Reservation the Flathead Indian Reservation and the Colville Indian Reservation
At present there are several indicators that portray significant distress among tribal members and in the community The tribal unemployment rate is 453 The poverty rate is 376 and per capita income is only $14287 In contrast the unemployment rate in Washington State is 49 and the poverty rate is 122 (US Census) These family stressors have deleterious effects on family functioning and cohesiveness leading to increased rates of domestic violence poor learning skills and school attendance among
children intensified use of drugs and alcohol and increased incidence of crime
However Spokane Indian tribal members and families remain resilient and continue to maintain close family ties and cultural connections In order for the Tribe to thrive and survive there must be a strong and enhanced infrastructure of support services social and economic development to create and support healthy families with access to living wage jobs and support services
Background
The Spokane Tribe of Indians (STOI) integrated the employment education and training programs January 1 2006 with our new approved plan from January 1 20015 - to December 31 2017 The programs are integrated as follows
Bureau of Indian Affairs bull General Assistance bull Higher Education bull Adult Education bull Johnson OMalley
Health and Human Services bull Temporary Assistance to Needy Families bull Childcare Development Fund-Mandatory bull Childcare Development Fund-Discretionary
Department of Labor bull WIA-Adult bull WIA-Youth
The plan integrates the above programs into a one-stop employment and training services program that serves the service areas and population as defined in agency plans These areas include the Spokane Indian Reservation and six (6) surrounding counties in Eastern Washington consisting of Stevens Lincoln Adams Whitman Spokane Pend Oreille There are currently two (2) locations providing services on site in Wellpinit WA which is on the Spokane Indian Reservation serving as the Tribes headquarters and one site in Spokane WA where a majority of the service population resides Together these locations serve approximately 650 clients at any given time

Goals and Objectives
Job placement of not less than 50 adult participants and special assistance recipients was not accomplished Participants hired by using both the sub wage phase I and II and apprenticeship program 25 adult participants were hired the programs biggest challenge was working with clients who have criminal records and finding employers willing to work with them Additionally there is little funding available to provide support services so work incentives and work clothing is highly restrictive The biggest employer on the reservation is the Spokane Tribe Until recently the Tribes own hiring policies and procedures were very restrictive for example every job announced required the applicant to have a drivers license and be in good standing This was true even for jobs that did not require the employee to drive Also the Tribes criminal history policy still restricts employees with certain convictions from working for the tribe However the Tribe has started allowing the enterprises to hire some employees with criminal convictions depending on the nature of the job and the conviction
Higher Education recipients during 20142015 year reported approximately one student that completed their Masters degree seven students completed their Bachelor Degrees two completed their Associate of Arts degree and five receiving Vocational Degrees
The program was able to financially assist approximately 118 Tribal members in pursuing a higher education or participation in an Adult Vocational Program The program was also able to provide a small stipend for living expenses however the amount was not effective in eliminating this financial barrier
Unmet Needs
The most significant unmet need continues to be Welfare Assistance and Higher Education
The General Assistance programs $291 monthly stipend does not provide enough for living expenses GA is a job training program but does not provide any monetary support services Clients receive coaching resume writing and job training from the Career Development Specialists If a client is offered a job but must have specialized clothing or equipment they are referred to the American Indian Center usually though the client is unable to purchase the equipment or clothing until their first paycheck We anticipate that the funding is not going to be increased but we still need to meet this need Our future plan is to offer $200 annually in support services by decreasing the number of GA clients we can serve The funding we save will be used to provide the support services This decision was made at the end of 2016 the impact will be recorded in next years report
Education is an unmet need because Pell Grants remain the same but tuition fees increase by an average of 12 every year The Education Program is also enjoying a steady increase of applicants More Tribal members are seeking degrees or certificates the increase is being seen
I
in both traditional and non-traditional students There is an increase in graduate students as well unfortunately graduate students have not been awarded funding for both Fall 2016 and Winter 2017 due to undergraduate projections conveying insufficient funding to sustain both undergraduates and graduates Per current policy graduate funding is contingent upon availability of funds and undergraduate funding takes precedence
The following are the amounts awarded per student each academic year
Undergraduate bull $8500 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $3000 stipend (cap) eligible for only full-time students working less than 31 hours per
week bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Graduate bull $10000 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Another reason to increase funds for higher education is that the unemployment rate within the interior boundaries of the Spokane Indian Reservation (SIR) is 453 However there are many professionaltechnical positions that pay a livable wage but are currently occupied by nontribal members Some departments in this predicament are DNR Preservation Building and Planning Accounting IT GIS Legal and even the Wellpinit School District to name a few
Additionally Governor Inslee concurs with the US Department of Interiors determination granting the Spokane Tribe of Indians the authority to build and operate a gaming facility known as the STEP project What this means is in the very near future a plethora of professional andor technical positions will be available ie hotel and hospitality management Human Resources HVAC slot attendants accounting gaming and so forth These positions will require a college or technical degree The Education Department has been working with the Salish College and TERO to develop professional certificate programs that will be available to Tribal members interested in working in jobs related to the STEP project
The overall long-term goal for higher education is to continue financially supplementing the costs of college for tribal members who are pursuing their higher education This assistance will ease some of the financial burden that accompanies the pursuit of a college degree assist in keeping student loan debt limited (although this is a financial decision only the individual has control over) and finally enable them to complete their higher education and find gainful employment in a professional field that pays a livable wage
This will contribute to the attainment and sustainability of self-sufficiency in addition to finding self-respect and independence through their pursuit and completion of their pursuit and completion of their higher education endeavors Overall the program assists in diminishing poverty and suppression that plague Indian Nations across the United States
Should future manufacturing or production occur within the interior boundaries of the reservation tribal members with a higher education andor vocational training will likely meet the qualifications for upper level professional positions (which are typically filled by non-tribal members presently) as opposed to the lower paid positions
Also per the Bureau of Labor Statistics Current Population Survey (assessed 15 October 2015 form wwwstudentaidgov) the higher the level of education the lower percentage rate for unemployment
Overall Tribal members with a college degree working within either the interior or exterior boundaries of the SIR are not only beneficial but contributing factors in releasing our people from suppression and poverty
Program Activities
GED Throughout the year 2015 GED had 65 participants Out of the 65 students 5 earned their GED The program currently employs one traveling GED instructor who has assigned appointments at both the Well pinit and Spokane sites 477 TANF clients who do not have a GED are required to work towards obtaining their GED by agreeing to spend up to 20 hours per week in participation hours as part of their ISP in attending GED class and studying Our programs 1 priority for our clients is to assist them in obtaining and education and removing barriers so they can accomplish their educational goals
Tutoring
Barriers to student success continue to be reading writing and math levels The Wellpinit School District reported that students would be more successful if they had access to reading programs throughout the year The program began offering professional tutoring services to any student who qualifies additionally case workers will refer clients who need additional help based on their current grades Since the program began offering professional tutoring there has been an increase in better grades and study habits for those students attending as reported by the Wellpinit School District
Youth Employment
Youth Employments busiest time is during the summer months employing up to 230 youth both on and off the reservation During the school year a handful of students work year round Also the length of employment per summer youth was cut to one five week session In order to be eligible to work a student has to demonstrate an ability to maintain a 2 0GPA be enrolled full time in school and be age 18 or a senior in high school The work experience the youth receive during the summer provides opportunity for them to increase their skills and work in a field they may one day choose to study While the youth learn valuable work experience the program continues to place a high standard on students achieving educational goals therefore
each year program requirements for participation will include higher educational standards for participation Beginning in 2017 summer youth employees are required to have graduated with a 20 Falling below that level will require the youth to work part time and attend tutoring part time Our ultimate goal will be to raise the standard to 25 with a 95 success rate by all youth
During the 2016 summer employment 14 year olds and those new to the program were required to work Crew This youth program requires that the employee spends part time in the field working landscaping and part time in job training classes Youth Employees also toured several manufacturing companies in the Spokane area where almost every Human Resource officer explained that what they look for in a potential employee is a person with a great work ethic and great attitude
Youth Activities
The youth activities primarily consist of an after school program in Spokane and at two centers on the reservation Ford and West End The after school programs include educational hour reading assistance homework club culture and crafts drama club and health and wellness The participants earn incentives which allow them to participate in off-site learning activities such as attending the Mobius Science Center or learning what is involved in putting on a professional theatrical performance by touring the Childrens Theater and meeting the behind the scene employees They also participate in cultural exchange programs with not only local tribes but with other cultures such as learning to Hula with Kuulei
Child Care
Childcare is provided at each of our 477 TANF sites consisting of two licensed centers a Head Start Preschool and a Salish Immersion school which opened in 2016 The childcare program entered into a partnership with the Wellpinit School District to provide professional development services to the childcare staff The staff received support for ECEDamp 107 Health Safety and Nutrition and ECEDamp 105 Introduction to Early Childhood Education in the Spring Quarter of 2016 April 4thth thru June 17th These services were contracted through the Spokane Falls Community College as a result almost all of the child care staff working on the reservation have at least an M degree Wellpinit School District in an effort to improve their district report card are providing support for staff development for those staff who are our childrens first teacher outside of the home In addition to the partnership the child care program continues to work with Early Achievers the centers achieved a rating of a 4 this year up from 3 last year The highest rating possible is a 5 with continued staff development we hope to achieve a level 5
TANF
The types of services available to our 477 TANF clients consist of GED Tutoring assistance and testing fees license and liability insurance drivers license renewalreinstatement rental assistance job readiness and basic needs support services along with a monthly cash grant
Utilizing the Tribal Assistance system (TAS) we have the ability to create a central data base of information for multiple service components The system is centered on the individual participant where common information is gathered once on an individual and shared by all internal case manager When client information changes it only has o be update once to be accessible by all using TAS Their capability allows us to provide a higher level of service to all participants A case plan is developed with the assistance of the participant and is complete only when the client and program staff have signed and dated the document We use the case plan or Individual Success Plan (ISP) to formalize a contract between the program and the participant to map out the journey from welfare to work For those who are not job ready immediately or who do not obtain employment right away the plan becomes a longer-term planning tool that may focus on further job search obtaining GED or drivers license etc Case Mangers demonstrate involving each participant with development of a ISP that establishes the individual participants goals

Barriers to Success or Challenges
The challenges we face are not unique to other Tribal programs our clients not only face economic challenges but they also must overcome generational trauma systemic poverty and limited resources to meet their economic circumstances
Most residents live in poverty and are faced with persistent high unemployment and severe underemployment as the norm Jobs are few and those available our clients do not usually meet the minimum educational requirements This means relocating to areas that have employment at their skill and educational level available However the tie to the reservation
and the desire to return is often strong for those that have been raised here and those who have had to leave most of their extended family behind in such a move is difficult
Our goal remains to serve our people by offering culturally relevant programming in a way that allows our people to feel empowered

Program Administration
The Tribal Business Council of the Spokane Tribe of Indians will have overall administrative authority for the STOI TANF Program Program management will be delegated to the Tribal Administration
The Tribe
The Spokane Tribe of Indians is a federally recognized Indian Tribe located on the 159000 acre Spokane Indian Reservation in a remote portion of northeast Washington State The Spokane Reservation is rural in character located 50 miles away from the nearest urban area of Spokane Washington There are three distinct communities on the 35-mile wide Reservation West End Ford and Wellpinit The on-Reservation population is 2094 of which 1661 are enrolled Tribal members (2012 US Census) Total tribal member enrollment as of March 2013 was 2839 There is a significant off-reservation population of Tribal members who reside in the City of Spokane
The Reservation was established in 1881 by Executive Order of President Rutherford B Hayes As established the Reservation contained 159000 acres As in the past natural resources are protected by the Spokane Indians The Spokane Indian Reservation consists of 108874 acres of forest 8552 acres of agricultural land and 10328 acres of lakes The town of Wellpinit is the main population center and the seat of Tribal government The terrain of the Reservation is generally forested mountains with water forming three of its boundaries Tshimikin Creek is the eastern border the Spokane River is the southern border and the Columbia River is the western border Until Grand Coulee Dam was completed on the Columbia River in 1940 the Spokane people relied on migrating salmon runs as the mainstay of their diets and indeed as a central focus of their cultural practices and their economy
According to written history the Spokane Tribe originally lived on three million acres of land in eastern Washington The Spokane Indians fished the Spokane River used the grand Spokane Falls as a gathering place of family and friends The Spokanes lived along the river in three bands known as the Upper Middle and Lower Spokane Indians In January of 1881 President Rutherford B Hayes by executive order formally declared the Spokane Indian Reservation as the new and much smaller home of the Spokane Indians The three bands of Spokane Indians were split up and some found new homes in other areas such as the Coeur dAlene Indian Reservation the Flathead Indian Reservation and the Colville Indian Reservation
At present there are several indicators that portray significant distress among tribal members and in the community The tribal unemployment rate is 453 The poverty rate is 376 and per capita income is only $14287 In contrast the unemployment rate in Washington State is 49 and the poverty rate is 122 (US Census) These family stressors have deleterious effects on family functioning and cohesiveness leading to increased rates of domestic violence poor learning skills and school attendance among
children intensified use of drugs and alcohol and increased incidence of crime
However Spokane Indian tribal members and families remain resilient and continue to maintain close family ties and cultural connections In order for the Tribe to thrive and survive there must be a strong and enhanced infrastructure of support services social and economic development to create and support healthy families with access to living wage jobs and support services
Background
The Spokane Tribe of Indians (STOI) integrated the employment education and training programs January 1 2006 with our new approved plan from January 1 20015 - to December 31 2017 The programs are integrated as follows
Bureau of Indian Affairs bull General Assistance bull Higher Education bull Adult Education bull Johnson OMalley
Health and Human Services bull Temporary Assistance to Needy Families bull Childcare Development Fund-Mandatory bull Childcare Development Fund-Discretionary
Department of Labor bull WIA-Adult bull WIA-Youth
The plan integrates the above programs into a one-stop employment and training services program that serves the service areas and population as defined in agency plans These areas include the Spokane Indian Reservation and six (6) surrounding counties in Eastern Washington consisting of Stevens Lincoln Adams Whitman Spokane Pend Oreille There are currently two (2) locations providing services on site in Wellpinit WA which is on the Spokane Indian Reservation serving as the Tribes headquarters and one site in Spokane WA where a majority of the service population resides Together these locations serve approximately 650 clients at any given time

Goals and Objectives
Job placement of not less than 50 adult participants and special assistance recipients was not accomplished Participants hired by using both the sub wage phase I and II and apprenticeship program 25 adult participants were hired the programs biggest challenge was working with clients who have criminal records and finding employers willing to work with them Additionally there is little funding available to provide support services so work incentives and work clothing is highly restrictive The biggest employer on the reservation is the Spokane Tribe Until recently the Tribes own hiring policies and procedures were very restrictive for example every job announced required the applicant to have a drivers license and be in good standing This was true even for jobs that did not require the employee to drive Also the Tribes criminal history policy still restricts employees with certain convictions from working for the tribe However the Tribe has started allowing the enterprises to hire some employees with criminal convictions depending on the nature of the job and the conviction
Higher Education recipients during 20142015 year reported approximately one student that completed their Masters degree seven students completed their Bachelor Degrees two completed their Associate of Arts degree and five receiving Vocational Degrees
The program was able to financially assist approximately 118 Tribal members in pursuing a higher education or participation in an Adult Vocational Program The program was also able to provide a small stipend for living expenses however the amount was not effective in eliminating this financial barrier
Unmet Needs
The most significant unmet need continues to be Welfare Assistance and Higher Education
The General Assistance programs $291 monthly stipend does not provide enough for living expenses GA is a job training program but does not provide any monetary support services Clients receive coaching resume writing and job training from the Career Development Specialists If a client is offered a job but must have specialized clothing or equipment they are referred to the American Indian Center usually though the client is unable to purchase the equipment or clothing until their first paycheck We anticipate that the funding is not going to be increased but we still need to meet this need Our future plan is to offer $200 annually in support services by decreasing the number of GA clients we can serve The funding we save will be used to provide the support services This decision was made at the end of 2016 the impact will be recorded in next years report
Education is an unmet need because Pell Grants remain the same but tuition fees increase by an average of 12 every year The Education Program is also enjoying a steady increase of applicants More Tribal members are seeking degrees or certificates the increase is being seen
I
in both traditional and non-traditional students There is an increase in graduate students as well unfortunately graduate students have not been awarded funding for both Fall 2016 and Winter 2017 due to undergraduate projections conveying insufficient funding to sustain both undergraduates and graduates Per current policy graduate funding is contingent upon availability of funds and undergraduate funding takes precedence
The following are the amounts awarded per student each academic year
Undergraduate bull $8500 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $3000 stipend (cap) eligible for only full-time students working less than 31 hours per
week bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Graduate bull $10000 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Another reason to increase funds for higher education is that the unemployment rate within the interior boundaries of the Spokane Indian Reservation (SIR) is 453 However there are many professionaltechnical positions that pay a livable wage but are currently occupied by nontribal members Some departments in this predicament are DNR Preservation Building and Planning Accounting IT GIS Legal and even the Wellpinit School District to name a few
Additionally Governor Inslee concurs with the US Department of Interiors determination granting the Spokane Tribe of Indians the authority to build and operate a gaming facility known as the STEP project What this means is in the very near future a plethora of professional andor technical positions will be available ie hotel and hospitality management Human Resources HVAC slot attendants accounting gaming and so forth These positions will require a college or technical degree The Education Department has been working with the Salish College and TERO to develop professional certificate programs that will be available to Tribal members interested in working in jobs related to the STEP project
The overall long-term goal for higher education is to continue financially supplementing the costs of college for tribal members who are pursuing their higher education This assistance will ease some of the financial burden that accompanies the pursuit of a college degree assist in keeping student loan debt limited (although this is a financial decision only the individual has control over) and finally enable them to complete their higher education and find gainful employment in a professional field that pays a livable wage
This will contribute to the attainment and sustainability of self-sufficiency in addition to finding self-respect and independence through their pursuit and completion of their pursuit and completion of their higher education endeavors Overall the program assists in diminishing poverty and suppression that plague Indian Nations across the United States
Should future manufacturing or production occur within the interior boundaries of the reservation tribal members with a higher education andor vocational training will likely meet the qualifications for upper level professional positions (which are typically filled by non-tribal members presently) as opposed to the lower paid positions
Also per the Bureau of Labor Statistics Current Population Survey (assessed 15 October 2015 form wwwstudentaidgov) the higher the level of education the lower percentage rate for unemployment
Overall Tribal members with a college degree working within either the interior or exterior boundaries of the SIR are not only beneficial but contributing factors in releasing our people from suppression and poverty
Program Activities
GED Throughout the year 2015 GED had 65 participants Out of the 65 students 5 earned their GED The program currently employs one traveling GED instructor who has assigned appointments at both the Well pinit and Spokane sites 477 TANF clients who do not have a GED are required to work towards obtaining their GED by agreeing to spend up to 20 hours per week in participation hours as part of their ISP in attending GED class and studying Our programs 1 priority for our clients is to assist them in obtaining and education and removing barriers so they can accomplish their educational goals
Tutoring
Barriers to student success continue to be reading writing and math levels The Wellpinit School District reported that students would be more successful if they had access to reading programs throughout the year The program began offering professional tutoring services to any student who qualifies additionally case workers will refer clients who need additional help based on their current grades Since the program began offering professional tutoring there has been an increase in better grades and study habits for those students attending as reported by the Wellpinit School District
Youth Employment
Youth Employments busiest time is during the summer months employing up to 230 youth both on and off the reservation During the school year a handful of students work year round Also the length of employment per summer youth was cut to one five week session In order to be eligible to work a student has to demonstrate an ability to maintain a 2 0GPA be enrolled full time in school and be age 18 or a senior in high school The work experience the youth receive during the summer provides opportunity for them to increase their skills and work in a field they may one day choose to study While the youth learn valuable work experience the program continues to place a high standard on students achieving educational goals therefore
each year program requirements for participation will include higher educational standards for participation Beginning in 2017 summer youth employees are required to have graduated with a 20 Falling below that level will require the youth to work part time and attend tutoring part time Our ultimate goal will be to raise the standard to 25 with a 95 success rate by all youth
During the 2016 summer employment 14 year olds and those new to the program were required to work Crew This youth program requires that the employee spends part time in the field working landscaping and part time in job training classes Youth Employees also toured several manufacturing companies in the Spokane area where almost every Human Resource officer explained that what they look for in a potential employee is a person with a great work ethic and great attitude
Youth Activities
The youth activities primarily consist of an after school program in Spokane and at two centers on the reservation Ford and West End The after school programs include educational hour reading assistance homework club culture and crafts drama club and health and wellness The participants earn incentives which allow them to participate in off-site learning activities such as attending the Mobius Science Center or learning what is involved in putting on a professional theatrical performance by touring the Childrens Theater and meeting the behind the scene employees They also participate in cultural exchange programs with not only local tribes but with other cultures such as learning to Hula with Kuulei
Child Care
Childcare is provided at each of our 477 TANF sites consisting of two licensed centers a Head Start Preschool and a Salish Immersion school which opened in 2016 The childcare program entered into a partnership with the Wellpinit School District to provide professional development services to the childcare staff The staff received support for ECEDamp 107 Health Safety and Nutrition and ECEDamp 105 Introduction to Early Childhood Education in the Spring Quarter of 2016 April 4thth thru June 17th These services were contracted through the Spokane Falls Community College as a result almost all of the child care staff working on the reservation have at least an M degree Wellpinit School District in an effort to improve their district report card are providing support for staff development for those staff who are our childrens first teacher outside of the home In addition to the partnership the child care program continues to work with Early Achievers the centers achieved a rating of a 4 this year up from 3 last year The highest rating possible is a 5 with continued staff development we hope to achieve a level 5
TANF
The types of services available to our 477 TANF clients consist of GED Tutoring assistance and testing fees license and liability insurance drivers license renewalreinstatement rental assistance job readiness and basic needs support services along with a monthly cash grant
Utilizing the Tribal Assistance system (TAS) we have the ability to create a central data base of information for multiple service components The system is centered on the individual participant where common information is gathered once on an individual and shared by all internal case manager When client information changes it only has o be update once to be accessible by all using TAS Their capability allows us to provide a higher level of service to all participants A case plan is developed with the assistance of the participant and is complete only when the client and program staff have signed and dated the document We use the case plan or Individual Success Plan (ISP) to formalize a contract between the program and the participant to map out the journey from welfare to work For those who are not job ready immediately or who do not obtain employment right away the plan becomes a longer-term planning tool that may focus on further job search obtaining GED or drivers license etc Case Mangers demonstrate involving each participant with development of a ISP that establishes the individual participants goals

Barriers to Success or Challenges
The challenges we face are not unique to other Tribal programs our clients not only face economic challenges but they also must overcome generational trauma systemic poverty and limited resources to meet their economic circumstances
Most residents live in poverty and are faced with persistent high unemployment and severe underemployment as the norm Jobs are few and those available our clients do not usually meet the minimum educational requirements This means relocating to areas that have employment at their skill and educational level available However the tie to the reservation
and the desire to return is often strong for those that have been raised here and those who have had to leave most of their extended family behind in such a move is difficult
Our goal remains to serve our people by offering culturally relevant programming in a way that allows our people to feel empowered

However Spokane Indian tribal members and families remain resilient and continue to maintain close family ties and cultural connections In order for the Tribe to thrive and survive there must be a strong and enhanced infrastructure of support services social and economic development to create and support healthy families with access to living wage jobs and support services
Background
The Spokane Tribe of Indians (STOI) integrated the employment education and training programs January 1 2006 with our new approved plan from January 1 20015 - to December 31 2017 The programs are integrated as follows
Bureau of Indian Affairs bull General Assistance bull Higher Education bull Adult Education bull Johnson OMalley
Health and Human Services bull Temporary Assistance to Needy Families bull Childcare Development Fund-Mandatory bull Childcare Development Fund-Discretionary
Department of Labor bull WIA-Adult bull WIA-Youth
The plan integrates the above programs into a one-stop employment and training services program that serves the service areas and population as defined in agency plans These areas include the Spokane Indian Reservation and six (6) surrounding counties in Eastern Washington consisting of Stevens Lincoln Adams Whitman Spokane Pend Oreille There are currently two (2) locations providing services on site in Wellpinit WA which is on the Spokane Indian Reservation serving as the Tribes headquarters and one site in Spokane WA where a majority of the service population resides Together these locations serve approximately 650 clients at any given time

Goals and Objectives
Job placement of not less than 50 adult participants and special assistance recipients was not accomplished Participants hired by using both the sub wage phase I and II and apprenticeship program 25 adult participants were hired the programs biggest challenge was working with clients who have criminal records and finding employers willing to work with them Additionally there is little funding available to provide support services so work incentives and work clothing is highly restrictive The biggest employer on the reservation is the Spokane Tribe Until recently the Tribes own hiring policies and procedures were very restrictive for example every job announced required the applicant to have a drivers license and be in good standing This was true even for jobs that did not require the employee to drive Also the Tribes criminal history policy still restricts employees with certain convictions from working for the tribe However the Tribe has started allowing the enterprises to hire some employees with criminal convictions depending on the nature of the job and the conviction
Higher Education recipients during 20142015 year reported approximately one student that completed their Masters degree seven students completed their Bachelor Degrees two completed their Associate of Arts degree and five receiving Vocational Degrees
The program was able to financially assist approximately 118 Tribal members in pursuing a higher education or participation in an Adult Vocational Program The program was also able to provide a small stipend for living expenses however the amount was not effective in eliminating this financial barrier
Unmet Needs
The most significant unmet need continues to be Welfare Assistance and Higher Education
The General Assistance programs $291 monthly stipend does not provide enough for living expenses GA is a job training program but does not provide any monetary support services Clients receive coaching resume writing and job training from the Career Development Specialists If a client is offered a job but must have specialized clothing or equipment they are referred to the American Indian Center usually though the client is unable to purchase the equipment or clothing until their first paycheck We anticipate that the funding is not going to be increased but we still need to meet this need Our future plan is to offer $200 annually in support services by decreasing the number of GA clients we can serve The funding we save will be used to provide the support services This decision was made at the end of 2016 the impact will be recorded in next years report
Education is an unmet need because Pell Grants remain the same but tuition fees increase by an average of 12 every year The Education Program is also enjoying a steady increase of applicants More Tribal members are seeking degrees or certificates the increase is being seen
I
in both traditional and non-traditional students There is an increase in graduate students as well unfortunately graduate students have not been awarded funding for both Fall 2016 and Winter 2017 due to undergraduate projections conveying insufficient funding to sustain both undergraduates and graduates Per current policy graduate funding is contingent upon availability of funds and undergraduate funding takes precedence
The following are the amounts awarded per student each academic year
Undergraduate bull $8500 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $3000 stipend (cap) eligible for only full-time students working less than 31 hours per
week bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Graduate bull $10000 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Another reason to increase funds for higher education is that the unemployment rate within the interior boundaries of the Spokane Indian Reservation (SIR) is 453 However there are many professionaltechnical positions that pay a livable wage but are currently occupied by nontribal members Some departments in this predicament are DNR Preservation Building and Planning Accounting IT GIS Legal and even the Wellpinit School District to name a few
Additionally Governor Inslee concurs with the US Department of Interiors determination granting the Spokane Tribe of Indians the authority to build and operate a gaming facility known as the STEP project What this means is in the very near future a plethora of professional andor technical positions will be available ie hotel and hospitality management Human Resources HVAC slot attendants accounting gaming and so forth These positions will require a college or technical degree The Education Department has been working with the Salish College and TERO to develop professional certificate programs that will be available to Tribal members interested in working in jobs related to the STEP project
The overall long-term goal for higher education is to continue financially supplementing the costs of college for tribal members who are pursuing their higher education This assistance will ease some of the financial burden that accompanies the pursuit of a college degree assist in keeping student loan debt limited (although this is a financial decision only the individual has control over) and finally enable them to complete their higher education and find gainful employment in a professional field that pays a livable wage
This will contribute to the attainment and sustainability of self-sufficiency in addition to finding self-respect and independence through their pursuit and completion of their pursuit and completion of their higher education endeavors Overall the program assists in diminishing poverty and suppression that plague Indian Nations across the United States
Should future manufacturing or production occur within the interior boundaries of the reservation tribal members with a higher education andor vocational training will likely meet the qualifications for upper level professional positions (which are typically filled by non-tribal members presently) as opposed to the lower paid positions
Also per the Bureau of Labor Statistics Current Population Survey (assessed 15 October 2015 form wwwstudentaidgov) the higher the level of education the lower percentage rate for unemployment
Overall Tribal members with a college degree working within either the interior or exterior boundaries of the SIR are not only beneficial but contributing factors in releasing our people from suppression and poverty
Program Activities
GED Throughout the year 2015 GED had 65 participants Out of the 65 students 5 earned their GED The program currently employs one traveling GED instructor who has assigned appointments at both the Well pinit and Spokane sites 477 TANF clients who do not have a GED are required to work towards obtaining their GED by agreeing to spend up to 20 hours per week in participation hours as part of their ISP in attending GED class and studying Our programs 1 priority for our clients is to assist them in obtaining and education and removing barriers so they can accomplish their educational goals
Tutoring
Barriers to student success continue to be reading writing and math levels The Wellpinit School District reported that students would be more successful if they had access to reading programs throughout the year The program began offering professional tutoring services to any student who qualifies additionally case workers will refer clients who need additional help based on their current grades Since the program began offering professional tutoring there has been an increase in better grades and study habits for those students attending as reported by the Wellpinit School District
Youth Employment
Youth Employments busiest time is during the summer months employing up to 230 youth both on and off the reservation During the school year a handful of students work year round Also the length of employment per summer youth was cut to one five week session In order to be eligible to work a student has to demonstrate an ability to maintain a 2 0GPA be enrolled full time in school and be age 18 or a senior in high school The work experience the youth receive during the summer provides opportunity for them to increase their skills and work in a field they may one day choose to study While the youth learn valuable work experience the program continues to place a high standard on students achieving educational goals therefore
each year program requirements for participation will include higher educational standards for participation Beginning in 2017 summer youth employees are required to have graduated with a 20 Falling below that level will require the youth to work part time and attend tutoring part time Our ultimate goal will be to raise the standard to 25 with a 95 success rate by all youth
During the 2016 summer employment 14 year olds and those new to the program were required to work Crew This youth program requires that the employee spends part time in the field working landscaping and part time in job training classes Youth Employees also toured several manufacturing companies in the Spokane area where almost every Human Resource officer explained that what they look for in a potential employee is a person with a great work ethic and great attitude
Youth Activities
The youth activities primarily consist of an after school program in Spokane and at two centers on the reservation Ford and West End The after school programs include educational hour reading assistance homework club culture and crafts drama club and health and wellness The participants earn incentives which allow them to participate in off-site learning activities such as attending the Mobius Science Center or learning what is involved in putting on a professional theatrical performance by touring the Childrens Theater and meeting the behind the scene employees They also participate in cultural exchange programs with not only local tribes but with other cultures such as learning to Hula with Kuulei
Child Care
Childcare is provided at each of our 477 TANF sites consisting of two licensed centers a Head Start Preschool and a Salish Immersion school which opened in 2016 The childcare program entered into a partnership with the Wellpinit School District to provide professional development services to the childcare staff The staff received support for ECEDamp 107 Health Safety and Nutrition and ECEDamp 105 Introduction to Early Childhood Education in the Spring Quarter of 2016 April 4thth thru June 17th These services were contracted through the Spokane Falls Community College as a result almost all of the child care staff working on the reservation have at least an M degree Wellpinit School District in an effort to improve their district report card are providing support for staff development for those staff who are our childrens first teacher outside of the home In addition to the partnership the child care program continues to work with Early Achievers the centers achieved a rating of a 4 this year up from 3 last year The highest rating possible is a 5 with continued staff development we hope to achieve a level 5
TANF
The types of services available to our 477 TANF clients consist of GED Tutoring assistance and testing fees license and liability insurance drivers license renewalreinstatement rental assistance job readiness and basic needs support services along with a monthly cash grant
Utilizing the Tribal Assistance system (TAS) we have the ability to create a central data base of information for multiple service components The system is centered on the individual participant where common information is gathered once on an individual and shared by all internal case manager When client information changes it only has o be update once to be accessible by all using TAS Their capability allows us to provide a higher level of service to all participants A case plan is developed with the assistance of the participant and is complete only when the client and program staff have signed and dated the document We use the case plan or Individual Success Plan (ISP) to formalize a contract between the program and the participant to map out the journey from welfare to work For those who are not job ready immediately or who do not obtain employment right away the plan becomes a longer-term planning tool that may focus on further job search obtaining GED or drivers license etc Case Mangers demonstrate involving each participant with development of a ISP that establishes the individual participants goals

CIF863 I received this case from another CW PI had quite a few exempt months from living on the reservation She worked PT at SFCCs Early Head Start program as an aid She really liked her job but is only worked 10 - 15 hrs a week on the average with no opportunity for advancement since she doesnt have any early childhood education She applied at numerous day care jobs but was never hired She reported that she isnt good at interviewing I worked with her on how to sell herself She applied at the TANF Childrens Center twice but was never hired due to poor interviews A few months ago another job in the TANF Childrens Center was posted I encouraged her to apply and encouraged her to talk about her child care experience in detail during the interview She was hired November 2016 and her case will close January 2017 for excessive earnings she will then receive transitional services
Barriers to Success or Challenges
The challenges we face are not unique to other Tribal programs our clients not only face economic challenges but they also must overcome generational trauma systemic poverty and limited resources to meet their economic circumstances
Most residents live in poverty and are faced with persistent high unemployment and severe underemployment as the norm Jobs are few and those available our clients do not usually meet the minimum educational requirements This means relocating to areas that have employment at their skill and educational level available However the tie to the reservation
and the desire to return is often strong for those that have been raised here and those who have had to leave most of their extended family behind in such a move is difficult
Our goal remains to serve our people by offering culturally relevant programming in a way that allows our people to feel empowered

Goals and Objectives
Job placement of not less than 50 adult participants and special assistance recipients was not accomplished Participants hired by using both the sub wage phase I and II and apprenticeship program 25 adult participants were hired the programs biggest challenge was working with clients who have criminal records and finding employers willing to work with them Additionally there is little funding available to provide support services so work incentives and work clothing is highly restrictive The biggest employer on the reservation is the Spokane Tribe Until recently the Tribes own hiring policies and procedures were very restrictive for example every job announced required the applicant to have a drivers license and be in good standing This was true even for jobs that did not require the employee to drive Also the Tribes criminal history policy still restricts employees with certain convictions from working for the tribe However the Tribe has started allowing the enterprises to hire some employees with criminal convictions depending on the nature of the job and the conviction
Higher Education recipients during 20142015 year reported approximately one student that completed their Masters degree seven students completed their Bachelor Degrees two completed their Associate of Arts degree and five receiving Vocational Degrees
The program was able to financially assist approximately 118 Tribal members in pursuing a higher education or participation in an Adult Vocational Program The program was also able to provide a small stipend for living expenses however the amount was not effective in eliminating this financial barrier
Unmet Needs
The most significant unmet need continues to be Welfare Assistance and Higher Education
The General Assistance programs $291 monthly stipend does not provide enough for living expenses GA is a job training program but does not provide any monetary support services Clients receive coaching resume writing and job training from the Career Development Specialists If a client is offered a job but must have specialized clothing or equipment they are referred to the American Indian Center usually though the client is unable to purchase the equipment or clothing until their first paycheck We anticipate that the funding is not going to be increased but we still need to meet this need Our future plan is to offer $200 annually in support services by decreasing the number of GA clients we can serve The funding we save will be used to provide the support services This decision was made at the end of 2016 the impact will be recorded in next years report
Education is an unmet need because Pell Grants remain the same but tuition fees increase by an average of 12 every year The Education Program is also enjoying a steady increase of applicants More Tribal members are seeking degrees or certificates the increase is being seen
I
in both traditional and non-traditional students There is an increase in graduate students as well unfortunately graduate students have not been awarded funding for both Fall 2016 and Winter 2017 due to undergraduate projections conveying insufficient funding to sustain both undergraduates and graduates Per current policy graduate funding is contingent upon availability of funds and undergraduate funding takes precedence
The following are the amounts awarded per student each academic year
Undergraduate bull $8500 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $3000 stipend (cap) eligible for only full-time students working less than 31 hours per
week bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Graduate bull $10000 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Another reason to increase funds for higher education is that the unemployment rate within the interior boundaries of the Spokane Indian Reservation (SIR) is 453 However there are many professionaltechnical positions that pay a livable wage but are currently occupied by nontribal members Some departments in this predicament are DNR Preservation Building and Planning Accounting IT GIS Legal and even the Wellpinit School District to name a few
Additionally Governor Inslee concurs with the US Department of Interiors determination granting the Spokane Tribe of Indians the authority to build and operate a gaming facility known as the STEP project What this means is in the very near future a plethora of professional andor technical positions will be available ie hotel and hospitality management Human Resources HVAC slot attendants accounting gaming and so forth These positions will require a college or technical degree The Education Department has been working with the Salish College and TERO to develop professional certificate programs that will be available to Tribal members interested in working in jobs related to the STEP project
The overall long-term goal for higher education is to continue financially supplementing the costs of college for tribal members who are pursuing their higher education This assistance will ease some of the financial burden that accompanies the pursuit of a college degree assist in keeping student loan debt limited (although this is a financial decision only the individual has control over) and finally enable them to complete their higher education and find gainful employment in a professional field that pays a livable wage
This will contribute to the attainment and sustainability of self-sufficiency in addition to finding self-respect and independence through their pursuit and completion of their pursuit and completion of their higher education endeavors Overall the program assists in diminishing poverty and suppression that plague Indian Nations across the United States
Should future manufacturing or production occur within the interior boundaries of the reservation tribal members with a higher education andor vocational training will likely meet the qualifications for upper level professional positions (which are typically filled by non-tribal members presently) as opposed to the lower paid positions
Also per the Bureau of Labor Statistics Current Population Survey (assessed 15 October 2015 form wwwstudentaidgov) the higher the level of education the lower percentage rate for unemployment
Overall Tribal members with a college degree working within either the interior or exterior boundaries of the SIR are not only beneficial but contributing factors in releasing our people from suppression and poverty
Program Activities
GED Throughout the year 2015 GED had 65 participants Out of the 65 students 5 earned their GED The program currently employs one traveling GED instructor who has assigned appointments at both the Well pinit and Spokane sites 477 TANF clients who do not have a GED are required to work towards obtaining their GED by agreeing to spend up to 20 hours per week in participation hours as part of their ISP in attending GED class and studying Our programs 1 priority for our clients is to assist them in obtaining and education and removing barriers so they can accomplish their educational goals
Tutoring
Barriers to student success continue to be reading writing and math levels The Wellpinit School District reported that students would be more successful if they had access to reading programs throughout the year The program began offering professional tutoring services to any student who qualifies additionally case workers will refer clients who need additional help based on their current grades Since the program began offering professional tutoring there has been an increase in better grades and study habits for those students attending as reported by the Wellpinit School District
Youth Employment
Youth Employments busiest time is during the summer months employing up to 230 youth both on and off the reservation During the school year a handful of students work year round Also the length of employment per summer youth was cut to one five week session In order to be eligible to work a student has to demonstrate an ability to maintain a 2 0GPA be enrolled full time in school and be age 18 or a senior in high school The work experience the youth receive during the summer provides opportunity for them to increase their skills and work in a field they may one day choose to study While the youth learn valuable work experience the program continues to place a high standard on students achieving educational goals therefore
each year program requirements for participation will include higher educational standards for participation Beginning in 2017 summer youth employees are required to have graduated with a 20 Falling below that level will require the youth to work part time and attend tutoring part time Our ultimate goal will be to raise the standard to 25 with a 95 success rate by all youth
During the 2016 summer employment 14 year olds and those new to the program were required to work Crew This youth program requires that the employee spends part time in the field working landscaping and part time in job training classes Youth Employees also toured several manufacturing companies in the Spokane area where almost every Human Resource officer explained that what they look for in a potential employee is a person with a great work ethic and great attitude
Youth Activities
The youth activities primarily consist of an after school program in Spokane and at two centers on the reservation Ford and West End The after school programs include educational hour reading assistance homework club culture and crafts drama club and health and wellness The participants earn incentives which allow them to participate in off-site learning activities such as attending the Mobius Science Center or learning what is involved in putting on a professional theatrical performance by touring the Childrens Theater and meeting the behind the scene employees They also participate in cultural exchange programs with not only local tribes but with other cultures such as learning to Hula with Kuulei
Child Care
Childcare is provided at each of our 477 TANF sites consisting of two licensed centers a Head Start Preschool and a Salish Immersion school which opened in 2016 The childcare program entered into a partnership with the Wellpinit School District to provide professional development services to the childcare staff The staff received support for ECEDamp 107 Health Safety and Nutrition and ECEDamp 105 Introduction to Early Childhood Education in the Spring Quarter of 2016 April 4thth thru June 17th These services were contracted through the Spokane Falls Community College as a result almost all of the child care staff working on the reservation have at least an M degree Wellpinit School District in an effort to improve their district report card are providing support for staff development for those staff who are our childrens first teacher outside of the home In addition to the partnership the child care program continues to work with Early Achievers the centers achieved a rating of a 4 this year up from 3 last year The highest rating possible is a 5 with continued staff development we hope to achieve a level 5
TANF
The types of services available to our 477 TANF clients consist of GED Tutoring assistance and testing fees license and liability insurance drivers license renewalreinstatement rental assistance job readiness and basic needs support services along with a monthly cash grant
Utilizing the Tribal Assistance system (TAS) we have the ability to create a central data base of information for multiple service components The system is centered on the individual participant where common information is gathered once on an individual and shared by all internal case manager When client information changes it only has o be update once to be accessible by all using TAS Their capability allows us to provide a higher level of service to all participants A case plan is developed with the assistance of the participant and is complete only when the client and program staff have signed and dated the document We use the case plan or Individual Success Plan (ISP) to formalize a contract between the program and the participant to map out the journey from welfare to work For those who are not job ready immediately or who do not obtain employment right away the plan becomes a longer-term planning tool that may focus on further job search obtaining GED or drivers license etc Case Mangers demonstrate involving each participant with development of a ISP that establishes the individual participants goals
Success stories as told by the caseworkers

Barriers to Success or Challenges
The challenges we face are not unique to other Tribal programs our clients not only face economic challenges but they also must overcome generational trauma systemic poverty and limited resources to meet their economic circumstances
Most residents live in poverty and are faced with persistent high unemployment and severe underemployment as the norm Jobs are few and those available our clients do not usually meet the minimum educational requirements This means relocating to areas that have employment at their skill and educational level available However the tie to the reservation
and the desire to return is often strong for those that have been raised here and those who have had to leave most of their extended family behind in such a move is difficult
Our goal remains to serve our people by offering culturally relevant programming in a way that allows our people to feel empowered

Goals and Objectives
Job placement of not less than 50 adult participants and special assistance recipients was not accomplished Participants hired by using both the sub wage phase I and II and apprenticeship program 25 adult participants were hired the programs biggest challenge was working with clients who have criminal records and finding employers willing to work with them Additionally there is little funding available to provide support services so work incentives and work clothing is highly restrictive The biggest employer on the reservation is the Spokane Tribe Until recently the Tribes own hiring policies and procedures were very restrictive for example every job announced required the applicant to have a drivers license and be in good standing This was true even for jobs that did not require the employee to drive Also the Tribes criminal history policy still restricts employees with certain convictions from working for the tribe However the Tribe has started allowing the enterprises to hire some employees with criminal convictions depending on the nature of the job and the conviction
Higher Education recipients during 20142015 year reported approximately one student that completed their Masters degree seven students completed their Bachelor Degrees two completed their Associate of Arts degree and five receiving Vocational Degrees
The program was able to financially assist approximately 118 Tribal members in pursuing a higher education or participation in an Adult Vocational Program The program was also able to provide a small stipend for living expenses however the amount was not effective in eliminating this financial barrier
Unmet Needs
The most significant unmet need continues to be Welfare Assistance and Higher Education
The General Assistance programs $291 monthly stipend does not provide enough for living expenses GA is a job training program but does not provide any monetary support services Clients receive coaching resume writing and job training from the Career Development Specialists If a client is offered a job but must have specialized clothing or equipment they are referred to the American Indian Center usually though the client is unable to purchase the equipment or clothing until their first paycheck We anticipate that the funding is not going to be increased but we still need to meet this need Our future plan is to offer $200 annually in support services by decreasing the number of GA clients we can serve The funding we save will be used to provide the support services This decision was made at the end of 2016 the impact will be recorded in next years report
Education is an unmet need because Pell Grants remain the same but tuition fees increase by an average of 12 every year The Education Program is also enjoying a steady increase of applicants More Tribal members are seeking degrees or certificates the increase is being seen
I
in both traditional and non-traditional students There is an increase in graduate students as well unfortunately graduate students have not been awarded funding for both Fall 2016 and Winter 2017 due to undergraduate projections conveying insufficient funding to sustain both undergraduates and graduates Per current policy graduate funding is contingent upon availability of funds and undergraduate funding takes precedence
The following are the amounts awarded per student each academic year
Undergraduate bull $8500 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $3000 stipend (cap) eligible for only full-time students working less than 31 hours per
week bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Graduate bull $10000 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Another reason to increase funds for higher education is that the unemployment rate within the interior boundaries of the Spokane Indian Reservation (SIR) is 453 However there are many professionaltechnical positions that pay a livable wage but are currently occupied by nontribal members Some departments in this predicament are DNR Preservation Building and Planning Accounting IT GIS Legal and even the Wellpinit School District to name a few
Additionally Governor Inslee concurs with the US Department of Interiors determination granting the Spokane Tribe of Indians the authority to build and operate a gaming facility known as the STEP project What this means is in the very near future a plethora of professional andor technical positions will be available ie hotel and hospitality management Human Resources HVAC slot attendants accounting gaming and so forth These positions will require a college or technical degree The Education Department has been working with the Salish College and TERO to develop professional certificate programs that will be available to Tribal members interested in working in jobs related to the STEP project
The overall long-term goal for higher education is to continue financially supplementing the costs of college for tribal members who are pursuing their higher education This assistance will ease some of the financial burden that accompanies the pursuit of a college degree assist in keeping student loan debt limited (although this is a financial decision only the individual has control over) and finally enable them to complete their higher education and find gainful employment in a professional field that pays a livable wage
This will contribute to the attainment and sustainability of self-sufficiency in addition to finding self-respect and independence through their pursuit and completion of their pursuit and completion of their higher education endeavors Overall the program assists in diminishing poverty and suppression that plague Indian Nations across the United States
Should future manufacturing or production occur within the interior boundaries of the reservation tribal members with a higher education andor vocational training will likely meet the qualifications for upper level professional positions (which are typically filled by non-tribal members presently) as opposed to the lower paid positions
Also per the Bureau of Labor Statistics Current Population Survey (assessed 15 October 2015 form wwwstudentaidgov) the higher the level of education the lower percentage rate for unemployment
Overall Tribal members with a college degree working within either the interior or exterior boundaries of the SIR are not only beneficial but contributing factors in releasing our people from suppression and poverty
Program Activities
GED Throughout the year 2015 GED had 65 participants Out of the 65 students 5 earned their GED The program currently employs one traveling GED instructor who has assigned appointments at both the Well pinit and Spokane sites 477 TANF clients who do not have a GED are required to work towards obtaining their GED by agreeing to spend up to 20 hours per week in participation hours as part of their ISP in attending GED class and studying Our programs 1 priority for our clients is to assist them in obtaining and education and removing barriers so they can accomplish their educational goals
Tutoring
Barriers to student success continue to be reading writing and math levels The Wellpinit School District reported that students would be more successful if they had access to reading programs throughout the year The program began offering professional tutoring services to any student who qualifies additionally case workers will refer clients who need additional help based on their current grades Since the program began offering professional tutoring there has been an increase in better grades and study habits for those students attending as reported by the Wellpinit School District
Youth Employment
Youth Employments busiest time is during the summer months employing up to 230 youth both on and off the reservation During the school year a handful of students work year round Also the length of employment per summer youth was cut to one five week session In order to be eligible to work a student has to demonstrate an ability to maintain a 2 0GPA be enrolled full time in school and be age 18 or a senior in high school The work experience the youth receive during the summer provides opportunity for them to increase their skills and work in a field they may one day choose to study While the youth learn valuable work experience the program continues to place a high standard on students achieving educational goals therefore
each year program requirements for participation will include higher educational standards for participation Beginning in 2017 summer youth employees are required to have graduated with a 20 Falling below that level will require the youth to work part time and attend tutoring part time Our ultimate goal will be to raise the standard to 25 with a 95 success rate by all youth
During the 2016 summer employment 14 year olds and those new to the program were required to work Crew This youth program requires that the employee spends part time in the field working landscaping and part time in job training classes Youth Employees also toured several manufacturing companies in the Spokane area where almost every Human Resource officer explained that what they look for in a potential employee is a person with a great work ethic and great attitude
Youth Activities
The youth activities primarily consist of an after school program in Spokane and at two centers on the reservation Ford and West End The after school programs include educational hour reading assistance homework club culture and crafts drama club and health and wellness The participants earn incentives which allow them to participate in off-site learning activities such as attending the Mobius Science Center or learning what is involved in putting on a professional theatrical performance by touring the Childrens Theater and meeting the behind the scene employees They also participate in cultural exchange programs with not only local tribes but with other cultures such as learning to Hula with Kuulei
Child Care
Childcare is provided at each of our 477 TANF sites consisting of two licensed centers a Head Start Preschool and a Salish Immersion school which opened in 2016 The childcare program entered into a partnership with the Wellpinit School District to provide professional development services to the childcare staff The staff received support for ECEDamp 107 Health Safety and Nutrition and ECEDamp 105 Introduction to Early Childhood Education in the Spring Quarter of 2016 April 4thth thru June 17th These services were contracted through the Spokane Falls Community College as a result almost all of the child care staff working on the reservation have at least an M degree Wellpinit School District in an effort to improve their district report card are providing support for staff development for those staff who are our childrens first teacher outside of the home In addition to the partnership the child care program continues to work with Early Achievers the centers achieved a rating of a 4 this year up from 3 last year The highest rating possible is a 5 with continued staff development we hope to achieve a level 5
TANF
The types of services available to our 477 TANF clients consist of GED Tutoring assistance and testing fees license and liability insurance drivers license renewalreinstatement rental assistance job readiness and basic needs support services along with a monthly cash grant
Utilizing the Tribal Assistance system (TAS) we have the ability to create a central data base of information for multiple service components The system is centered on the individual participant where common information is gathered once on an individual and shared by all internal case manager When client information changes it only has o be update once to be accessible by all using TAS Their capability allows us to provide a higher level of service to all participants A case plan is developed with the assistance of the participant and is complete only when the client and program staff have signed and dated the document We use the case plan or Individual Success Plan (ISP) to formalize a contract between the program and the participant to map out the journey from welfare to work For those who are not job ready immediately or who do not obtain employment right away the plan becomes a longer-term planning tool that may focus on further job search obtaining GED or drivers license etc Case Mangers demonstrate involving each participant with development of a ISP that establishes the individual participants goals
Success stories as told by the caseworkers

Barriers to Success or Challenges
The challenges we face are not unique to other Tribal programs our clients not only face economic challenges but they also must overcome generational trauma systemic poverty and limited resources to meet their economic circumstances
Most residents live in poverty and are faced with persistent high unemployment and severe underemployment as the norm Jobs are few and those available our clients do not usually meet the minimum educational requirements This means relocating to areas that have employment at their skill and educational level available However the tie to the reservation
and the desire to return is often strong for those that have been raised here and those who have had to leave most of their extended family behind in such a move is difficult
Our goal remains to serve our people by offering culturally relevant programming in a way that allows our people to feel empowered

Goals and Objectives
Job placement of not less than 50 adult participants and special assistance recipients was not accomplished Participants hired by using both the sub wage phase I and II and apprenticeship program 25 adult participants were hired the programs biggest challenge was working with clients who have criminal records and finding employers willing to work with them Additionally there is little funding available to provide support services so work incentives and work clothing is highly restrictive The biggest employer on the reservation is the Spokane Tribe Until recently the Tribes own hiring policies and procedures were very restrictive for example every job announced required the applicant to have a drivers license and be in good standing This was true even for jobs that did not require the employee to drive Also the Tribes criminal history policy still restricts employees with certain convictions from working for the tribe However the Tribe has started allowing the enterprises to hire some employees with criminal convictions depending on the nature of the job and the conviction
Higher Education recipients during 20142015 year reported approximately one student that completed their Masters degree seven students completed their Bachelor Degrees two completed their Associate of Arts degree and five receiving Vocational Degrees
The program was able to financially assist approximately 118 Tribal members in pursuing a higher education or participation in an Adult Vocational Program The program was also able to provide a small stipend for living expenses however the amount was not effective in eliminating this financial barrier
Unmet Needs
The most significant unmet need continues to be Welfare Assistance and Higher Education
The General Assistance programs $291 monthly stipend does not provide enough for living expenses GA is a job training program but does not provide any monetary support services Clients receive coaching resume writing and job training from the Career Development Specialists If a client is offered a job but must have specialized clothing or equipment they are referred to the American Indian Center usually though the client is unable to purchase the equipment or clothing until their first paycheck We anticipate that the funding is not going to be increased but we still need to meet this need Our future plan is to offer $200 annually in support services by decreasing the number of GA clients we can serve The funding we save will be used to provide the support services This decision was made at the end of 2016 the impact will be recorded in next years report
Education is an unmet need because Pell Grants remain the same but tuition fees increase by an average of 12 every year The Education Program is also enjoying a steady increase of applicants More Tribal members are seeking degrees or certificates the increase is being seen
I
in both traditional and non-traditional students There is an increase in graduate students as well unfortunately graduate students have not been awarded funding for both Fall 2016 and Winter 2017 due to undergraduate projections conveying insufficient funding to sustain both undergraduates and graduates Per current policy graduate funding is contingent upon availability of funds and undergraduate funding takes precedence
The following are the amounts awarded per student each academic year
Undergraduate bull $8500 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $3000 stipend (cap) eligible for only full-time students working less than 31 hours per
week bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Graduate bull $10000 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Another reason to increase funds for higher education is that the unemployment rate within the interior boundaries of the Spokane Indian Reservation (SIR) is 453 However there are many professionaltechnical positions that pay a livable wage but are currently occupied by nontribal members Some departments in this predicament are DNR Preservation Building and Planning Accounting IT GIS Legal and even the Wellpinit School District to name a few
Additionally Governor Inslee concurs with the US Department of Interiors determination granting the Spokane Tribe of Indians the authority to build and operate a gaming facility known as the STEP project What this means is in the very near future a plethora of professional andor technical positions will be available ie hotel and hospitality management Human Resources HVAC slot attendants accounting gaming and so forth These positions will require a college or technical degree The Education Department has been working with the Salish College and TERO to develop professional certificate programs that will be available to Tribal members interested in working in jobs related to the STEP project
The overall long-term goal for higher education is to continue financially supplementing the costs of college for tribal members who are pursuing their higher education This assistance will ease some of the financial burden that accompanies the pursuit of a college degree assist in keeping student loan debt limited (although this is a financial decision only the individual has control over) and finally enable them to complete their higher education and find gainful employment in a professional field that pays a livable wage
This will contribute to the attainment and sustainability of self-sufficiency in addition to finding self-respect and independence through their pursuit and completion of their pursuit and completion of their higher education endeavors Overall the program assists in diminishing poverty and suppression that plague Indian Nations across the United States
Should future manufacturing or production occur within the interior boundaries of the reservation tribal members with a higher education andor vocational training will likely meet the qualifications for upper level professional positions (which are typically filled by non-tribal members presently) as opposed to the lower paid positions
Also per the Bureau of Labor Statistics Current Population Survey (assessed 15 October 2015 form wwwstudentaidgov) the higher the level of education the lower percentage rate for unemployment
Overall Tribal members with a college degree working within either the interior or exterior boundaries of the SIR are not only beneficial but contributing factors in releasing our people from suppression and poverty
Program Activities
GED Throughout the year 2015 GED had 65 participants Out of the 65 students 5 earned their GED The program currently employs one traveling GED instructor who has assigned appointments at both the Well pinit and Spokane sites 477 TANF clients who do not have a GED are required to work towards obtaining their GED by agreeing to spend up to 20 hours per week in participation hours as part of their ISP in attending GED class and studying Our programs 1 priority for our clients is to assist them in obtaining and education and removing barriers so they can accomplish their educational goals
Tutoring
Barriers to student success continue to be reading writing and math levels The Wellpinit School District reported that students would be more successful if they had access to reading programs throughout the year The program began offering professional tutoring services to any student who qualifies additionally case workers will refer clients who need additional help based on their current grades Since the program began offering professional tutoring there has been an increase in better grades and study habits for those students attending as reported by the Wellpinit School District
Youth Employment
Youth Employments busiest time is during the summer months employing up to 230 youth both on and off the reservation During the school year a handful of students work year round Also the length of employment per summer youth was cut to one five week session In order to be eligible to work a student has to demonstrate an ability to maintain a 2 0GPA be enrolled full time in school and be age 18 or a senior in high school The work experience the youth receive during the summer provides opportunity for them to increase their skills and work in a field they may one day choose to study While the youth learn valuable work experience the program continues to place a high standard on students achieving educational goals therefore
each year program requirements for participation will include higher educational standards for participation Beginning in 2017 summer youth employees are required to have graduated with a 20 Falling below that level will require the youth to work part time and attend tutoring part time Our ultimate goal will be to raise the standard to 25 with a 95 success rate by all youth
During the 2016 summer employment 14 year olds and those new to the program were required to work Crew This youth program requires that the employee spends part time in the field working landscaping and part time in job training classes Youth Employees also toured several manufacturing companies in the Spokane area where almost every Human Resource officer explained that what they look for in a potential employee is a person with a great work ethic and great attitude
Youth Activities
The youth activities primarily consist of an after school program in Spokane and at two centers on the reservation Ford and West End The after school programs include educational hour reading assistance homework club culture and crafts drama club and health and wellness The participants earn incentives which allow them to participate in off-site learning activities such as attending the Mobius Science Center or learning what is involved in putting on a professional theatrical performance by touring the Childrens Theater and meeting the behind the scene employees They also participate in cultural exchange programs with not only local tribes but with other cultures such as learning to Hula with Kuulei
Child Care
Childcare is provided at each of our 477 TANF sites consisting of two licensed centers a Head Start Preschool and a Salish Immersion school which opened in 2016 The childcare program entered into a partnership with the Wellpinit School District to provide professional development services to the childcare staff The staff received support for ECEDamp 107 Health Safety and Nutrition and ECEDamp 105 Introduction to Early Childhood Education in the Spring Quarter of 2016 April 4thth thru June 17th These services were contracted through the Spokane Falls Community College as a result almost all of the child care staff working on the reservation have at least an M degree Wellpinit School District in an effort to improve their district report card are providing support for staff development for those staff who are our childrens first teacher outside of the home In addition to the partnership the child care program continues to work with Early Achievers the centers achieved a rating of a 4 this year up from 3 last year The highest rating possible is a 5 with continued staff development we hope to achieve a level 5
TANF
The types of services available to our 477 TANF clients consist of GED Tutoring assistance and testing fees license and liability insurance drivers license renewalreinstatement rental assistance job readiness and basic needs support services along with a monthly cash grant
Utilizing the Tribal Assistance system (TAS) we have the ability to create a central data base of information for multiple service components The system is centered on the individual participant where common information is gathered once on an individual and shared by all internal case manager When client information changes it only has o be update once to be accessible by all using TAS Their capability allows us to provide a higher level of service to all participants A case plan is developed with the assistance of the participant and is complete only when the client and program staff have signed and dated the document We use the case plan or Individual Success Plan (ISP) to formalize a contract between the program and the participant to map out the journey from welfare to work For those who are not job ready immediately or who do not obtain employment right away the plan becomes a longer-term planning tool that may focus on further job search obtaining GED or drivers license etc Case Mangers demonstrate involving each participant with development of a ISP that establishes the individual participants goals
Success stories as told by the caseworkers

Barriers to Success or Challenges
The challenges we face are not unique to other Tribal programs our clients not only face economic challenges but they also must overcome generational trauma systemic poverty and limited resources to meet their economic circumstances
Most residents live in poverty and are faced with persistent high unemployment and severe underemployment as the norm Jobs are few and those available our clients do not usually meet the minimum educational requirements This means relocating to areas that have employment at their skill and educational level available However the tie to the reservation
and the desire to return is often strong for those that have been raised here and those who have had to leave most of their extended family behind in such a move is difficult
Our goal remains to serve our people by offering culturally relevant programming in a way that allows our people to feel empowered

in both traditional and non-traditional students There is an increase in graduate students as well unfortunately graduate students have not been awarded funding for both Fall 2016 and Winter 2017 due to undergraduate projections conveying insufficient funding to sustain both undergraduates and graduates Per current policy graduate funding is contingent upon availability of funds and undergraduate funding takes precedence
The following are the amounts awarded per student each academic year
Undergraduate bull $8500 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $3000 stipend (cap) eligible for only full-time students working less than 31 hours per
week bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Graduate bull $10000 tuition (cap) and based upon an as-needed basis or unmet need bull $600 (cap) bookssuppliestool reimbursement
Another reason to increase funds for higher education is that the unemployment rate within the interior boundaries of the Spokane Indian Reservation (SIR) is 453 However there are many professionaltechnical positions that pay a livable wage but are currently occupied by nontribal members Some departments in this predicament are DNR Preservation Building and Planning Accounting IT GIS Legal and even the Wellpinit School District to name a few
Additionally Governor Inslee concurs with the US Department of Interiors determination granting the Spokane Tribe of Indians the authority to build and operate a gaming facility known as the STEP project What this means is in the very near future a plethora of professional andor technical positions will be available ie hotel and hospitality management Human Resources HVAC slot attendants accounting gaming and so forth These positions will require a college or technical degree The Education Department has been working with the Salish College and TERO to develop professional certificate programs that will be available to Tribal members interested in working in jobs related to the STEP project
The overall long-term goal for higher education is to continue financially supplementing the costs of college for tribal members who are pursuing their higher education This assistance will ease some of the financial burden that accompanies the pursuit of a college degree assist in keeping student loan debt limited (although this is a financial decision only the individual has control over) and finally enable them to complete their higher education and find gainful employment in a professional field that pays a livable wage
This will contribute to the attainment and sustainability of self-sufficiency in addition to finding self-respect and independence through their pursuit and completion of their pursuit and completion of their higher education endeavors Overall the program assists in diminishing poverty and suppression that plague Indian Nations across the United States
Should future manufacturing or production occur within the interior boundaries of the reservation tribal members with a higher education andor vocational training will likely meet the qualifications for upper level professional positions (which are typically filled by non-tribal members presently) as opposed to the lower paid positions
Also per the Bureau of Labor Statistics Current Population Survey (assessed 15 October 2015 form wwwstudentaidgov) the higher the level of education the lower percentage rate for unemployment
Overall Tribal members with a college degree working within either the interior or exterior boundaries of the SIR are not only beneficial but contributing factors in releasing our people from suppression and poverty
Program Activities
GED Throughout the year 2015 GED had 65 participants Out of the 65 students 5 earned their GED The program currently employs one traveling GED instructor who has assigned appointments at both the Well pinit and Spokane sites 477 TANF clients who do not have a GED are required to work towards obtaining their GED by agreeing to spend up to 20 hours per week in participation hours as part of their ISP in attending GED class and studying Our programs 1 priority for our clients is to assist them in obtaining and education and removing barriers so they can accomplish their educational goals
Tutoring
Barriers to student success continue to be reading writing and math levels The Wellpinit School District reported that students would be more successful if they had access to reading programs throughout the year The program began offering professional tutoring services to any student who qualifies additionally case workers will refer clients who need additional help based on their current grades Since the program began offering professional tutoring there has been an increase in better grades and study habits for those students attending as reported by the Wellpinit School District
Youth Employment
Youth Employments busiest time is during the summer months employing up to 230 youth both on and off the reservation During the school year a handful of students work year round Also the length of employment per summer youth was cut to one five week session In order to be eligible to work a student has to demonstrate an ability to maintain a 2 0GPA be enrolled full time in school and be age 18 or a senior in high school The work experience the youth receive during the summer provides opportunity for them to increase their skills and work in a field they may one day choose to study While the youth learn valuable work experience the program continues to place a high standard on students achieving educational goals therefore
each year program requirements for participation will include higher educational standards for participation Beginning in 2017 summer youth employees are required to have graduated with a 20 Falling below that level will require the youth to work part time and attend tutoring part time Our ultimate goal will be to raise the standard to 25 with a 95 success rate by all youth
During the 2016 summer employment 14 year olds and those new to the program were required to work Crew This youth program requires that the employee spends part time in the field working landscaping and part time in job training classes Youth Employees also toured several manufacturing companies in the Spokane area where almost every Human Resource officer explained that what they look for in a potential employee is a person with a great work ethic and great attitude
Youth Activities
The youth activities primarily consist of an after school program in Spokane and at two centers on the reservation Ford and West End The after school programs include educational hour reading assistance homework club culture and crafts drama club and health and wellness The participants earn incentives which allow them to participate in off-site learning activities such as attending the Mobius Science Center or learning what is involved in putting on a professional theatrical performance by touring the Childrens Theater and meeting the behind the scene employees They also participate in cultural exchange programs with not only local tribes but with other cultures such as learning to Hula with Kuulei
Child Care
Childcare is provided at each of our 477 TANF sites consisting of two licensed centers a Head Start Preschool and a Salish Immersion school which opened in 2016 The childcare program entered into a partnership with the Wellpinit School District to provide professional development services to the childcare staff The staff received support for ECEDamp 107 Health Safety and Nutrition and ECEDamp 105 Introduction to Early Childhood Education in the Spring Quarter of 2016 April 4thth thru June 17th These services were contracted through the Spokane Falls Community College as a result almost all of the child care staff working on the reservation have at least an M degree Wellpinit School District in an effort to improve their district report card are providing support for staff development for those staff who are our childrens first teacher outside of the home In addition to the partnership the child care program continues to work with Early Achievers the centers achieved a rating of a 4 this year up from 3 last year The highest rating possible is a 5 with continued staff development we hope to achieve a level 5
TANF
The types of services available to our 477 TANF clients consist of GED Tutoring assistance and testing fees license and liability insurance drivers license renewalreinstatement rental assistance job readiness and basic needs support services along with a monthly cash grant
Utilizing the Tribal Assistance system (TAS) we have the ability to create a central data base of information for multiple service components The system is centered on the individual participant where common information is gathered once on an individual and shared by all internal case manager When client information changes it only has o be update once to be accessible by all using TAS Their capability allows us to provide a higher level of service to all participants A case plan is developed with the assistance of the participant and is complete only when the client and program staff have signed and dated the document We use the case plan or Individual Success Plan (ISP) to formalize a contract between the program and the participant to map out the journey from welfare to work For those who are not job ready immediately or who do not obtain employment right away the plan becomes a longer-term planning tool that may focus on further job search obtaining GED or drivers license etc Case Mangers demonstrate involving each participant with development of a ISP that establishes the individual participants goals

CIF863 I received this case from another CW PI had quite a few exempt months from living on the reservation She worked PT at SFCCs Early Head Start program as an aid She really liked her job but is only worked 10 - 15 hrs a week on the average with no opportunity for advancement since she doesnt have any early childhood education She applied at numerous day care jobs but was never hired She reported that she isnt good at interviewing I worked with her on how to sell herself She applied at the TANF Childrens Center twice but was never hired due to poor interviews A few months ago another job in the TANF Childrens Center was posted I encouraged her to apply and encouraged her to talk about her child care experience in detail during the interview She was hired November 2016 and her case will close January 2017 for excessive earnings she will then receive transitional services
Barriers to Success or Challenges
The challenges we face are not unique to other Tribal programs our clients not only face economic challenges but they also must overcome generational trauma systemic poverty and limited resources to meet their economic circumstances
Most residents live in poverty and are faced with persistent high unemployment and severe underemployment as the norm Jobs are few and those available our clients do not usually meet the minimum educational requirements This means relocating to areas that have employment at their skill and educational level available However the tie to the reservation
and the desire to return is often strong for those that have been raised here and those who have had to leave most of their extended family behind in such a move is difficult
Our goal remains to serve our people by offering culturally relevant programming in a way that allows our people to feel empowered

Should future manufacturing or production occur within the interior boundaries of the reservation tribal members with a higher education andor vocational training will likely meet the qualifications for upper level professional positions (which are typically filled by non-tribal members presently) as opposed to the lower paid positions
Also per the Bureau of Labor Statistics Current Population Survey (assessed 15 October 2015 form wwwstudentaidgov) the higher the level of education the lower percentage rate for unemployment
Overall Tribal members with a college degree working within either the interior or exterior boundaries of the SIR are not only beneficial but contributing factors in releasing our people from suppression and poverty
Program Activities
GED Throughout the year 2015 GED had 65 participants Out of the 65 students 5 earned their GED The program currently employs one traveling GED instructor who has assigned appointments at both the Well pinit and Spokane sites 477 TANF clients who do not have a GED are required to work towards obtaining their GED by agreeing to spend up to 20 hours per week in participation hours as part of their ISP in attending GED class and studying Our programs 1 priority for our clients is to assist them in obtaining and education and removing barriers so they can accomplish their educational goals
Tutoring
Barriers to student success continue to be reading writing and math levels The Wellpinit School District reported that students would be more successful if they had access to reading programs throughout the year The program began offering professional tutoring services to any student who qualifies additionally case workers will refer clients who need additional help based on their current grades Since the program began offering professional tutoring there has been an increase in better grades and study habits for those students attending as reported by the Wellpinit School District
Youth Employment
Youth Employments busiest time is during the summer months employing up to 230 youth both on and off the reservation During the school year a handful of students work year round Also the length of employment per summer youth was cut to one five week session In order to be eligible to work a student has to demonstrate an ability to maintain a 2 0GPA be enrolled full time in school and be age 18 or a senior in high school The work experience the youth receive during the summer provides opportunity for them to increase their skills and work in a field they may one day choose to study While the youth learn valuable work experience the program continues to place a high standard on students achieving educational goals therefore
each year program requirements for participation will include higher educational standards for participation Beginning in 2017 summer youth employees are required to have graduated with a 20 Falling below that level will require the youth to work part time and attend tutoring part time Our ultimate goal will be to raise the standard to 25 with a 95 success rate by all youth
During the 2016 summer employment 14 year olds and those new to the program were required to work Crew This youth program requires that the employee spends part time in the field working landscaping and part time in job training classes Youth Employees also toured several manufacturing companies in the Spokane area where almost every Human Resource officer explained that what they look for in a potential employee is a person with a great work ethic and great attitude
Youth Activities
The youth activities primarily consist of an after school program in Spokane and at two centers on the reservation Ford and West End The after school programs include educational hour reading assistance homework club culture and crafts drama club and health and wellness The participants earn incentives which allow them to participate in off-site learning activities such as attending the Mobius Science Center or learning what is involved in putting on a professional theatrical performance by touring the Childrens Theater and meeting the behind the scene employees They also participate in cultural exchange programs with not only local tribes but with other cultures such as learning to Hula with Kuulei
Child Care
Childcare is provided at each of our 477 TANF sites consisting of two licensed centers a Head Start Preschool and a Salish Immersion school which opened in 2016 The childcare program entered into a partnership with the Wellpinit School District to provide professional development services to the childcare staff The staff received support for ECEDamp 107 Health Safety and Nutrition and ECEDamp 105 Introduction to Early Childhood Education in the Spring Quarter of 2016 April 4thth thru June 17th These services were contracted through the Spokane Falls Community College as a result almost all of the child care staff working on the reservation have at least an M degree Wellpinit School District in an effort to improve their district report card are providing support for staff development for those staff who are our childrens first teacher outside of the home In addition to the partnership the child care program continues to work with Early Achievers the centers achieved a rating of a 4 this year up from 3 last year The highest rating possible is a 5 with continued staff development we hope to achieve a level 5
TANF
The types of services available to our 477 TANF clients consist of GED Tutoring assistance and testing fees license and liability insurance drivers license renewalreinstatement rental assistance job readiness and basic needs support services along with a monthly cash grant
Utilizing the Tribal Assistance system (TAS) we have the ability to create a central data base of information for multiple service components The system is centered on the individual participant where common information is gathered once on an individual and shared by all internal case manager When client information changes it only has o be update once to be accessible by all using TAS Their capability allows us to provide a higher level of service to all participants A case plan is developed with the assistance of the participant and is complete only when the client and program staff have signed and dated the document We use the case plan or Individual Success Plan (ISP) to formalize a contract between the program and the participant to map out the journey from welfare to work For those who are not job ready immediately or who do not obtain employment right away the plan becomes a longer-term planning tool that may focus on further job search obtaining GED or drivers license etc Case Mangers demonstrate involving each participant with development of a ISP that establishes the individual participants goals

Barriers to Success or Challenges

Most residents live in poverty and are faced with persistent high unemployment and severe underemployment as the norm Jobs are few and those available our clients do not usually meet the minimum educational requirements This means relocating to areas that have employment at their skill and educational level available However the tie to the reservation
and the desire to return is often strong for those that have been raised here and those who have had to leave most of their extended family behind in such a move is difficult
Our goal remains to serve our people by offering culturally relevant programming in a way that allows our people to feel empowered

each year program requirements for participation will include higher educational standards for participation Beginning in 2017 summer youth employees are required to have graduated with a 20 Falling below that level will require the youth to work part time and attend tutoring part time Our ultimate goal will be to raise the standard to 25 with a 95 success rate by all youth
During the 2016 summer employment 14 year olds and those new to the program were required to work Crew This youth program requires that the employee spends part time in the field working landscaping and part time in job training classes Youth Employees also toured several manufacturing companies in the Spokane area where almost every Human Resource officer explained that what they look for in a potential employee is a person with a great work ethic and great attitude
Youth Activities
The youth activities primarily consist of an after school program in Spokane and at two centers on the reservation Ford and West End The after school programs include educational hour reading assistance homework club culture and crafts drama club and health and wellness The participants earn incentives which allow them to participate in off-site learning activities such as attending the Mobius Science Center or learning what is involved in putting on a professional theatrical performance by touring the Childrens Theater and meeting the behind the scene employees They also participate in cultural exchange programs with not only local tribes but with other cultures such as learning to Hula with Kuulei
Child Care
Childcare is provided at each of our 477 TANF sites consisting of two licensed centers a Head Start Preschool and a Salish Immersion school which opened in 2016 The childcare program entered into a partnership with the Wellpinit School District to provide professional development services to the childcare staff The staff received support for ECEDamp 107 Health Safety and Nutrition and ECEDamp 105 Introduction to Early Childhood Education in the Spring Quarter of 2016 April 4thth thru June 17th These services were contracted through the Spokane Falls Community College as a result almost all of the child care staff working on the reservation have at least an M degree Wellpinit School District in an effort to improve their district report card are providing support for staff development for those staff who are our childrens first teacher outside of the home In addition to the partnership the child care program continues to work with Early Achievers the centers achieved a rating of a 4 this year up from 3 last year The highest rating possible is a 5 with continued staff development we hope to achieve a level 5
TANF
The types of services available to our 477 TANF clients consist of GED Tutoring assistance and testing fees license and liability insurance drivers license renewalreinstatement rental assistance job readiness and basic needs support services along with a monthly cash grant
Utilizing the Tribal Assistance system (TAS) we have the ability to create a central data base of information for multiple service components The system is centered on the individual participant where common information is gathered once on an individual and shared by all internal case manager When client information changes it only has o be update once to be accessible by all using TAS Their capability allows us to provide a higher level of service to all participants A case plan is developed with the assistance of the participant and is complete only when the client and program staff have signed and dated the document We use the case plan or Individual Success Plan (ISP) to formalize a contract between the program and the participant to map out the journey from welfare to work For those who are not job ready immediately or who do not obtain employment right away the plan becomes a longer-term planning tool that may focus on further job search obtaining GED or drivers license etc Case Mangers demonstrate involving each participant with development of a ISP that establishes the individual participants goals

Barriers to Success or Challenges
The challenges we face are not unique to other Tribal programs our clients not only face economic challenges but they also must overcome generational trauma systemic poverty and limited resources to meet their economic circumstances
Most residents live in poverty and are faced with persistent high unemployment and severe underemployment as the norm Jobs are few and those available our clients do not usually meet the minimum educational requirements This means relocating to areas that have employment at their skill and educational level available However the tie to the reservation
and the desire to return is often strong for those that have been raised here and those who have had to leave most of their extended family behind in such a move is difficult
Our goal remains to serve our people by offering culturally relevant programming in a way that allows our people to feel empowered

Utilizing the Tribal Assistance system (TAS) we have the ability to create a central data base of information for multiple service components The system is centered on the individual participant where common information is gathered once on an individual and shared by all internal case manager When client information changes it only has o be update once to be accessible by all using TAS Their capability allows us to provide a higher level of service to all participants A case plan is developed with the assistance of the participant and is complete only when the client and program staff have signed and dated the document We use the case plan or Individual Success Plan (ISP) to formalize a contract between the program and the participant to map out the journey from welfare to work For those who are not job ready immediately or who do not obtain employment right away the plan becomes a longer-term planning tool that may focus on further job search obtaining GED or drivers license etc Case Mangers demonstrate involving each participant with development of a ISP that establishes the individual participants goals

Barriers to Success or Challenges
The challenges we face are not unique to other Tribal programs our clients not only face economic challenges but they also must overcome generational trauma systemic poverty and limited resources to meet their economic circumstances
Most residents live in poverty and are faced with persistent high unemployment and severe underemployment as the norm Jobs are few and those available our clients do not usually meet the minimum educational requirements This means relocating to areas that have employment at their skill and educational level available However the tie to the reservation
and the desire to return is often strong for those that have been raised here and those who have had to leave most of their extended family behind in such a move is difficult
Our goal remains to serve our people by offering culturally relevant programming in a way that allows our people to feel empowered
