Those given recognition were Adeline Miller, Senior Citizen Specialist with II years; Kathleen Moses, Maternal Child Health, with ten years; Arlene David community health representative line worker, with one and half years and Robert Miller, community health represen tative line worker with six months. Each received a CHR medallion. The CHR program was estab lished in I969 and it was the first program to take a major step by tribes to manage health programs.
