WEDD was able to do this with JTPA carryover funds. WEDD crew mem bers are: Douglas Palmer, Brenda Cloud, CarlaDean Caldera, Charie Chee, Sr. Chris Authur, Tracy Frank, Adele Waheneka, Wayne Miller, and Charlene Winishut (who is on the Labor Pool crew). The foremen are Thurman Squiemphen and Johnny Holliday. Our regular labor pool is also in volved as a partner with the other two crews. WEDD crews will be clearing weeds and picking up trash and gen erally cleaning up the various hous ing areas first. The crews will then start planting trees, shrubs, and flowers in various parts in the community and housing areas. Another special thing that WEDD is doing, is planting trees in memory of someone. One of the outcomes of this is that trees will be taken care of in a good way by families and households where the tree is planted. So please lets all work together on this. WEDD will also be acquiring some free trees and other plants, wc will have to purchase. WEDD is not sure exactly how many trees it will end with at this time. WEDD crews will be construct ing a special area which will be the "Welcome To Warm Springs" area. It will have a special sign designed by the crews, and will include grass, flowers, shrubs, and trees planted. The Labor Pool will maintain it when the project is completed. Time permitting, we hope to start a community garden. There are sev eral food service providers which could benefit from fresh fruits and vegetables (ECE, Police dept., W.S. Elementary School, Senior Citizen Program, Restaurants, Wellness Center, and the community at large) If you want to bring out your green thumb and get involved, give us a call. WEDD asks that each commu nity member take part in this excit ing and much needed project. Drop by when you see a crew out in the community and pitch-in and help. WEDD would be glad to have you and your family. WEDD also asks each community member to do a little something to help keep our community areas clean, build pride back into keeping the community clean and livable in a good way. Please don't throw trash, bottles, cans, or other items out your ve hicle. Please keep your household garbage contained and picked up around your homes and surrounding areas. Let's be proud of where we live. How our community looks, tells and shows how we feel. Maybe, an other service area who reads this article can sponsor trash receptacles and community members can spon sor individual receptacles so they are everywhere and available for use by the community. We love our community. The WEDD department is doing what they can to bring back pride to our community. Please do your part. If you would like to be a volunteer, please give WEDD a call at 553 3324.

The list ing previously sent has been updated and once again we are seeking tribal assistance in locating these account holders. . The Office of Trust Funds Man agement is encouraging tribal repre sentatives to support this effort lo cally, through whatever advetisement media you may have available (e.g. the posting of the attached "Where abouts Unknown" listing at the tribal headquarters in a conspicuous place, etc.). If the previous list was posted please replace it with the undated list. Also, it would be very beneficial to have each tribal enrollment office review their enrollment records for current addresses. The tribal office could then provide us with the infor mation, which would allow us to proceed further in contacting the rightful owners of all Individual In dian Money (IIM) accounts. The Office of the Special Trustee, Office of Trust Funds Management would like to thank you in advance, for your cooperation in this impor tant endeavor. If you have any ques tions, please call Marlene Walker or Harold Redhouse at (505) 248-5805 or the local IIM department.

Desiree Dupree; Suttcrlee, Fabian Donald; Total: 4 On April 5-7 Warm Springs, Victims of Crime Services presented "Vanishing The Anger Strengthen ing The Family" conference at Kah-Nee-Ta Resort. Keynote speakers included Sharon Clanchischillage, (Navajo Nation) Howard Rainer, (Taos Pueblo-Creek) and Lisa Tiger, (Muscogee Nation). Master of social work, Sharon Clanchischillage asked during a youth workshop, "WTiat's the power and reward of personal change in the Indian home and community ?" "It's time to empower with your power. Children need to know they have a purpose in life," says Howard Rainer. "We as adults and parents need to learn how to lift the spirits of the young. Turn off your televi sions and rcjd more," says Rainer. Talk to your children and tell them how special they are in your life. Adults should be a good example to the young people around them. Young people learn from their elders from the start of their life. Help them make goals for themselves in life. Adults and young people alike need to find one special thing they would want to improve in their lives," says Rainer. "Help each other find that one thing, and follow through with it." Facts show that domestic violence is a family affair. Studies show that girls raised in violent homes often grow up to become victims. Boys raised in violent environ ments often become batterers as adults. Many battered victims report that their relationship follows a com mon pattern called the cycle of do mestic violence. The cycle of vio lence starts an explosion of anger and fear, then loving and contrite, (It will never happen again) guilt and re morse builds up the tension back to anger and fear. The Victims Of Crime Services in Warm Springs offers 24-hour safe shelter for people who are in need of protection from domestic violence. Their mission is to promote the safety and justice of all victims of crime services in our community. Victims of Crime Services believe in the right of each and every person, to live their lives free of violence. The VOCS provide services to all people in the community who are victims and sur vivors of violence. For more infor mation or if you are a victim, please call 553-2293. Every day over 100 women and children leave their homes for safety of shelters and safehomes.
