The Portland Am erican Indian com m unity w ill have an opportunity to
watch and participate as the A IA P Board o f Directors begins a nine-month
planning process to secure services to urban Indians lost through the
fragmentation o f m ajor m ulti-service Indian organizations. The Am erican
Indian Association o f Portland (A IA P ), an "organization o f Indian organi­
zations," has existed in the Portland com m unity fo r several years and, in the
past, provided an open forum fo r Indian issues.
P O R T L A N D IM P A C T , a m ulti-cullural/m ulti-service agency was
awarded a $25,000 United Way grant in June to fund this planning process.
C hristine Low ery (Hopi/Laguna), a social w orker w ith com m unity organ­
izing skills, was hired Oct. 9 to coordinate the activities o f the A IA P Board.
The prim ary goal is to develop a summary and fund raising plan. Funds w ill
also be used to provide public relations material such as an A IA P brochure
and a "com munication tool for the Indian com m unity."
The Am erican Indian Association o f Portland is housed by PORT­
L A N D IM P A C T at 4707 S.E. Hawthorne, 97215. P O R T LA N D IM P A C T
also sponsors the Indian elders group, Pi Nee Waus.
Currently represented on the A IA P Board o f Directors are T itle V
Indian Education, Oregon Commission on Indian Services, N W Indian
C hild W elfare Association, Concerned Indian Com m unity, Church o f the
Four W inds, JTPA Confederated Tribes o f Siletz, Portland Impact, Aging
M inority Task Force, Native American Rehabilitation Association (N A R A ),
Pi Nee Waus, and the Indian comm unity-at-large.
Board recruitm ent is now in progress, w ith board training in the
planning stages. In dividual association memberships, Indian organization
memberships, and non-Indian individual and organizational memberships
are available. For more inform ation contact C hristine Low ery, (503) 233-

ybung luoman Introduce. Œjçotic Seasoning
by D an Bell
Rene Richardson is a young woman
on the move. She has recently released
for marketing an exotic seasoning that
enhances any non-sweet food stuff. Ms.
Richardson is an enterprising 25-ycar-
old Portland native, who w ith the help o f
her mother, has started marketing Rene's
Exotic Seasoning.
Rene is a Job Corp graduate who
during her training there study such diverse
subjects as cement finishing, cooking,
and business. Her exotic seasoning
evolved out o f her experiences as a part
owner and fu ll-tim e cook o f W ill, Eve­
lyn & Rene's restaurant, located in N /
N.E. Portland. The seasoning was a re­
sult o f a necessary need to conserve time
and space. O riginally developed for meat
preparation. It took two years o f re­
search and development. Her present
recipe now is compatible w ith meat,
poultry, fish and vegetables.
Rene states that her exotic season­
ing is a food enhancer, and enhances the
taste o f the food prepared. W ithin the
last year, Rene has attended several food
service trade shows, such as Seattle’s
Cooking and Kitchen Show, Oregon
Product Show, and the local National
Beef C ook-O ff, Oct. 17, at the P.I.T.
Club. Rene promoted her product at an
an elegant All-You-C an-Eat B uffet and
Fashion Show. The event was w ell at­
tended and from a ll indications her sea­
soning was a h it w ith those in atten­
dance.
Rene's Exotic Seasoning is avail­
able at Alameda Foods on 24th and
Fremont, Com o Foods on M L K Blvd.,
and Select M arket on 15th and Brazee.
The seasoning is also available by direct
m ail by calling (503) 240-5323. Here is
a recipe o f Rene’s that m ight enjoy.
