She entered the program in October 2014 when she was expecting her fourth child and continued until Xavier turned 3 years old in February. Erika, and John when he was able, greeted each lesson with openness and a will- ingness to engage. Erika had this to say, “It’s very educational. Lots of information for new parents. I have four kids and it is a good refresher. It helps to hear the new stuff that comes out, the old and new ways.” Siletz Tribal Vocational Rehabilitation Program (STVRP) STVRP is here to assist members of ANY federally recognized Tribe in overcoming barriers to employment.
