PROGRAM NARRATIVE

The Confederated Tribes of the Colville Indian Reservation was established the

2nd of July in 1872 by Executive Order The Tribe consists of 12 Bands and we

are the largest Tribe of the 27 Indian Sovereign Nations within the State of

Washington Presently our Reservation consists of 14 + million acres with more

than 9300 enrolled members The majority of the land base has an array of

natural resources such as prime timber rivers streams lakes minerals native

plants and wildlife The Confederated Tribes of the Colville Indian Reservation

are governed by 14 business council who are elected to a two year term The

Tribe has charted its own corporation the Colville Tribal Federal Corporation

(CTFC) which oversees several enterprise divisions such as three gaming

casinos three grocery stores two of which are equipped for fuel sales two

smoke shops a campingfishing resort three convenience stores with fuel and

wood chipper plant The plywood mill was leased by an outside company and

employs approximately 40 to 50 employees they have tribal employment of over

51 in 2016 In 2016 a new Tribal Administrative facility and new CasinoHotel

1

were completed and became operational The CasinoHotel is employs

approximately 200 positions The corporation has two projects under construction

for an additional conveniencefuel store as well as small casino which is

projected to employ about 30 people total Also being considered is the

reopening of the lumber mill in the Omak area

In our Plan I included an Economic Development section as our Business Council

has strongly encouraged the inclusion as it has recognized the need in these

hard economic times for increased employment opportunities for our tribal

membership I am hoping that with this component it will open up the doors to not

only Tribal Enterprises but surrounding area businesses Presently we have

funded some private business operation owned by tribal members The goal is to

get businesses willing to work with our Tribal Members in creating careers rather

than just a job

We have worked diligently in the past year to provide services not only through

our 477 plan but since moving into the new government center the Higher

Education Tribal College and Veterans programs are not located within our area

but we still maintain a relationship with them in order to provide services to coshy

clients Human Resources TANF Vocational Rehabilitation Program and the

Tribal Employment Right programs are all on the same floor of the new

government complex Our Employment amp Training Program has co-sponsored

training events with the above mention programs throughout the year We have

provided services with other programs in co-client efforts to assure that every

effort is made to attain the goal of self-sufficiency by our clients We have coshy

sponsored several job fairs with the local Work Source and the Economic

Alliance Programs all were very successful several clients obtained

unsubsidized employment as a result of the job fairs

2

A Memorandum of Understanding has been renewed with the Tribal TANF

Program specific to the Child Care facilities funded through our 477 program

The MOA is supporting a new facility as well as increase in staff in order to meet

the need of child care services on our reservation Notice in the statistical report

that our number have increased significantly these number reflect child care for

working parents and weve experienced a significant turnover in children due to

the parents that are able to secure unsubsidized employment The MOA with

Fish amp Wildlife Department for recruiting applicants to enter into the Salmon

Hatchery Internship has completed in 2016 All students that had completed the 2

year and 4 year education degrees have been employed by the Fish and Wildlife

Department

During the 2016 year the 477 program has co-sponsored with our Tribal

Employment Rights Ordinance (TERO) program in recruiting clients to attend

certifiable training 2 clients completed HVAC training are were immediately

employed after graduation 5 to 6 clients were certified as Heavy Equipment

operators interested in apprenticeship trades Tribal Employment Rights

Ordinance Program has reinstated their Apprenticeship Program and is starting

development of a training program specific to construction occupations along

with our support they have proposed Memorandum of Understanding with our

local construction company and local unions to provide the training program

Employment amp Training Program has co-sponsored several clients to attend and

complete training specific to Unarmed Security Training Microsoft Excel Training

flagging Training and Certification Hydraulics Training and Welding classes

There were several in-house changes that were made to improve the delivery of

services We have an operational jobs or skill bank in place making the

application process more user friendly for our clients Also our Tribal Human

Resources Department has implemented a program called Ultipro to better assist

3

the programs fill positions and applicants to apply on line for position in a timelier

manner

The number of Adult Vocational Training students continues to grow each year in

working with our Higher Education Program we have been able to take several

Vocational Students who met eligibility criteria for our program which made room

for students on Higher Education waiting list to be funded The referral option

allows both programs to assist more tribal members The GED project was not

as successful as anticipated due to the fact that our student numbers were low

and completion was almost non-existent This will be one of our priorities in FY

2017 to work with our local college to implement the availability of GED classes

(with instructor)

Summer Youth Program which served approximately 220 youth this year was a

combined effort of the Tribes K-12 Program and 477 Program Employment amp

Training Program also has an After School and Running Start programs which

have assisted several youth throughout the year with work experience in the

areas of the students interest the Running Start give high school students an

advantage in preparing to further their higher education plan and goals

Co-clients efforts with the Tribal Veterans Program to assist veterans who are

seeking employment opportunities and assist them in development of their

applicationresumes to submit for job opening as they come open in their areas of

interest or past experience Veterans preference is practiced in our program

along with the Tribes Human Resource Department in job placement and hiring

Our Hiring Hall system has increased in number of applications input in the past

year (over 1000 applications) with the Tribes Human Resource Department only

accepting paperless applications via e-mail this is why we continue to upgrade

4

and update out Job Bank With these computerized changes requires one staff

person to operate and input and update application information We made some

major changes that increased the efficiency of job applications being referred out

and updated regularly In the past year we have advertised 883 jobs for Tribal

Colville Tribal Enterprise Corporation and outside hiring entities Of these job

orders 545 have been closed through hire or re-advertisement Our Job

DevelopmentDispatcher continues helping Hiring HallSkills Bank clients fill out

job applications correctly according to the minimum qualifications on the

advertisement and their job skills We then keep an electronic copy of each

application and change or add skills according to the advertisements

requirements The Job DevelopmentDispatcher has also developed a

computerized hiring hall system and verifies each applicants

employmenteducation skills and then place them in the appropriate occupation

file Each applicant is given a clean copy of their application each time they apply

for an advertised position We have also trained and retrained staff interested and

who assist clients in applying for positions advertised on USAJOBS site which

can only be applied for on-line Also our job dispatcher has been trained in the

Tribes HR Ultipro system to assist clients to apply on line for Tribal opportunities

The position of Job DeveloperDispatcher assigned to our Omak district has been

upgraded to operate in the capacity of Job Developer as well as being a job

dispatcher

Our daily sign-in sheet indicated that the total number of clients that came into

the offices for Employment amp Training Services was 7920 which increased from

last year and contributed to the high unemployment rate and number of tribal

member moving back to the reservation

Our Work Experience and On-the-Job programs increased this year due to the

Plywood Plant Language Casino operation and private contractors providing

5

training for permanent employment placement at the end of each component

The reclassification of the Job Dispatcher to Job Development component more

contact and information has been distributed to private businesses throughout the

reservation and we have secured several position placements Some major

partnerships are with programs such as Department of Social and Health

Services Vocational Rehabilitation Wenatchee Valley College Bureau of

Reclamation Omak Wood Products Maintenance sub-contractors with the

Bureau of Reclamation and Work Source Of course we work with our own Tribal

programs as well such as Vocational Rehabilitation Temporary Assistance to

Needy Families Higher Education Tribal Employment Right Ordinance etc We

have also attended several meetings sponsored by our local Unions in the

building and construction trades to recruit for apprenticeship programs

Child Care Programs is still focused on cultural and language for both of our

centers We have implemented our ncelxcin language into our child care centers

by acquiring fluent speakers who are teaching staff and parents through weekly

classroom training and then training our children Our ANA Language grant has

completed this year and was very successful with our Child Care Center staff and

their ability to speak the language Elders have provided to our centers staff and

children cultural teachings drumming and singing of our songs We have

secured an agreement with one of the local school districts to share training for

our Child Care Staff in the field of disabilities focusing on Autistic children The

training for the staff includes how to identify possible disabilities and how to deal

with these children and provide vital information to the parents We have secured

an additional three year MOA between our Tribal TANF program and Child Care

to meet the unmet needs of the two Child Care Centers They have hosted

community events to promote more community and family involvement in the

childcare centers Licensing of our center has been completed and approved

Minor repairs and quality improvement have been made to both centers for

6

quality assurance and safety for our children Planning for community

scheduled and completed with excellent turnout Upgrading of our staff in

required classes such as Stars training and First AideCPR classes with

certifications have been completed Recruitment of in home service providers

has created inquiries in the development of in home child care facilities with at

waiting list or aggressively recruit in home providers

All of the Job Development Specialist has completed their Case Management

Training and several have completed the Tribal Assistance System (TAS)

program training in the past year I would like to take this time to acknowledge

the great benefits that I and my staff have gained through training provided in

house as well as formal training provided through our funding sources

The number of Economic Development grants which have been awarded is

reflected in the statistical report

Unmet need

Unemployment rate at 50 and above on the Colville Reservation more clients

made requests for Vocational and Higher Education to acquire a certification or

degree to enhance their chances of permanent employment Also demonstrated

that clients want to gain unsubsidized employment and our numbers of requests

for WEX and OJT have increased Funding for both education and WEXOJT is

inadequate We have started 2017 year committing most of our educational

budget Child Care unmet need is additional funding for building improvements

for lnchelium Center the current building is inadequate in space to meet the

number of existing and new applicants requiring child care services Also

7

increase child care dollars in contracts and seed grants to fund additional in

home care centers

PROGRAM NARRATIVE

The Confederated Tribes of the Colville Indian Reservation was established the

2nd of July in 1872 by Executive Order The Tribe consists of 12 Bands and we

are the largest Tribe of the 27 Indian Sovereign Nations within the State of

Washington Presently our Reservation consists of 14 + million acres with more

than 9300 enrolled members The majority of the land base has an array of

natural resources such as prime timber rivers streams lakes minerals native

plants and wildlife The Confederated Tribes of the Colville Indian Reservation

are governed by 14 business council who are elected to a two year term The

Tribe has charted its own corporation the Colville Tribal Federal Corporation

(CTFC) which oversees several enterprise divisions such as three gaming

casinos three grocery stores two of which are equipped for fuel sales two

smoke shops a campingfishing resort three convenience stores with fuel and

wood chipper plant The plywood mill was leased by an outside company and

employs approximately 40 to 50 employees they have tribal employment of over

51 in 2016 In 2016 a new Tribal Administrative facility and new CasinoHotel

1

were completed and became operational The CasinoHotel is employs

approximately 200 positions The corporation has two projects under construction

for an additional conveniencefuel store as well as small casino which is

projected to employ about 30 people total Also being considered is the

reopening of the lumber mill in the Omak area

In our Plan I included an Economic Development section as our Business Council

has strongly encouraged the inclusion as it has recognized the need in these

hard economic times for increased employment opportunities for our tribal

membership I am hoping that with this component it will open up the doors to not

only Tribal Enterprises but surrounding area businesses Presently we have

funded some private business operation owned by tribal members The goal is to

get businesses willing to work with our Tribal Members in creating careers rather

than just a job

We have worked diligently in the past year to provide services not only through

our 477 plan but since moving into the new government center the Higher

Education Tribal College and Veterans programs are not located within our area

but we still maintain a relationship with them in order to provide services to coshy

clients Human Resources TANF Vocational Rehabilitation Program and the

Tribal Employment Right programs are all on the same floor of the new

government complex Our Employment amp Training Program has co-sponsored

training events with the above mention programs throughout the year We have

provided services with other programs in co-client efforts to assure that every

effort is made to attain the goal of self-sufficiency by our clients We have coshy

sponsored several job fairs with the local Work Source and the Economic

Alliance Programs all were very successful several clients obtained

unsubsidized employment as a result of the job fairs

A Memorandum of Understanding has been renewed with the Tribal TANF

Program specific to the Child Care facilities funded through our 477 program

The MOA is supporting a new facility as well as increase in staff in order to meet

the need of child care services on our reservation Notice in the statistical report

that our number have increased significantly these number reflect child care for

working parents and weve experienced a significant turnover in children due to

the parents that are able to secure unsubsidized employment The MOA with

Fish amp Wildlife Department for recruiting applicants to enter into the Salmon

Hatchery Internship has completed in 2016 All students that had completed the 2

year and 4 year education degrees have been employed by the Fish and Wildlife

Department

During the 2016 year the 477 program has co-sponsored with our Tribal

Employment Rights Ordinance (TERO) program in recruiting clients to attend

certifiable training 2 clients completed HVAC training are were immediately

employed after graduation 5 to 6 clients were certified as Heavy Equipment

operators interested in apprenticeship trades Tribal Employment Rights

Ordinance Program has reinstated their Apprenticeship Program and is starting

development of a training program specific to construction occupations along

with our support they have proposed Memorandum of Understanding with our

local construction company and local unions to provide the training program

Employment amp Training Program has co-sponsored several clients to attend and

complete training specific to Unarmed Security Training Microsoft Excel Training

application process more user friendly for our clients Also our Tribal Human

Resources Department has implemented a program called Ultipro to better assist

3

the programs fill positions and applicants to apply on line for position in a timelier

manner

The number of Adult Vocational Training students continues to grow each year in

working with our Higher Education Program we have been able to take several

Vocational Students who met eligibility criteria for our program which made room

for students on Higher Education waiting list to be funded The referral option

allows both programs to assist more tribal members The GED project was not

as successful as anticipated due to the fact that our student numbers were low

and completion was almost non-existent This will be one of our priorities in FY

2017 to work with our local college to implement the availability of GED classes

(with instructor)

Summer Youth Program which served approximately 220 youth this year was a

combined effort of the Tribes K-12 Program and 477 Program Employment amp

Training Program also has an After School and Running Start programs which

have assisted several youth throughout the year with work experience in the

areas of the students interest the Running Start give high school students an

advantage in preparing to further their higher education plan and goals

Co-clients efforts with the Tribal Veterans Program to assist veterans who are

seeking employment opportunities and assist them in development of their

applicationresumes to submit for job opening as they come open in their areas of

interest or past experience Veterans preference is practiced in our program

along with the Tribes Human Resource Department in job placement and hiring

Our Hiring Hall system has increased in number of applications input in the past

year (over 1000 applications) with the Tribes Human Resource Department only

person to operate and input and update application information We made some

Tribes HR Ultipro system to assist clients to apply on line for Tribal opportunities

The position of Job DeveloperDispatcher assigned to our Omak district has been

upgraded to operate in the capacity of Job Developer as well as being a job

dispatcher

Our daily sign-in sheet indicated that the total number of clients that came into

the offices for Employment amp Training Services was 7920 which increased from

last year and contributed to the high unemployment rate and number of tribal

member moving back to the reservation

Our Work Experience and On-the-Job programs increased this year due to the

Plywood Plant Language Casino operation and private contractors providing

5

training for permanent employment placement at the end of each component

The reclassification of the Job Dispatcher to Job Development component more

contact and information has been distributed to private businesses throughout the

reservation and we have secured several position placements Some major

partnerships are with programs such as Department of Social and Health

Services Vocational Rehabilitation Wenatchee Valley College Bureau of

Bureau of Reclamation and Work Source Of course we work with our own Tribal

programs as well such as Vocational Rehabilitation Temporary Assistance to

by acquiring fluent speakers who are teaching staff and parents through weekly

classroom training and then training our children Our ANA Language grant has

completed this year and was very successful with our Child Care Center staff and

their ability to speak the language Elders have provided to our centers staff and

children cultural teachings drumming and singing of our songs We have

secured an agreement with one of the local school districts to share training for

our Child Care Staff in the field of disabilities focusing on Autistic children The

training for the staff includes how to identify possible disabilities and how to deal

with these children and provide vital information to the parents We have secured

an additional three year MOA between our Tribal TANF program and Child Care

to meet the unmet needs of the two Child Care Centers They have hosted

community events to promote more community and family involvement in the

Training and several have completed the Tribal Assistance System (TAS)

program training in the past year I would like to take this time to acknowledge

the great benefits that I and my staff have gained through training provided in

house as well as formal training provided through our funding sources

The number of Economic Development grants which have been awarded is

reflected in the statistical report

Unmet need

Unemployment rate at 50 and above on the Colville Reservation more clients

made requests for Vocational and Higher Education to acquire a certification or

degree to enhance their chances of permanent employment Also demonstrated

that clients want to gain unsubsidized employment and our numbers of requests

for WEX and OJT have increased Funding for both education and WEXOJT is

inadequate We have started 2017 year committing most of our educational

budget Child Care unmet need is additional funding for building improvements

for lnchelium Center the current building is inadequate in space to meet the

number of existing and new applicants requiring child care services Also

7

increase child care dollars in contracts and seed grants to fund additional in

home care centers
