New computer lab project completed and ready for Tribal members to use Grant funds provided by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (477-Self Sufficiency Program), along with funds provided by excess pledge revenue (EPR), allowed the Siletz Tribe to construct a computer lab and file room, and replace new Human Resources cubicles. The computer lab is located in the Siletz administration build- ing behind the main reception area. The computer lab will allow Tribal members to job search, complete résumés and participate in trainings provided by programs. Tribal programs will use the lab to provide client trainings and conduct meetings and orientations. Tribal programs and administration will also utilize the lab to provide in-house staff trainings. This will help reduce travel costs as trainers could be brought to Siletz to provide training to more staff. The lab has 12 work stations and a lectern station, smart board, printer access and projector system. The lab is for employment- and training-related purposes; it is not for personal or social media use. For additional information and access to the computer lab, contact Kurtis Barker, 477-Self Sufficiency Program director, at 541-444-8247; 800-922-1399, ext. 1247; or kurtisb@ctsi.nsn.us Job opening at Hee Hee Illahee RV Resort TLC Holdings LLC is seeking an office assistant for the front desk of the Hee Hee Illahee RV Resort.
