Smoke Signals March 1991 page 2 Community News Enrollment Program -Statistics As our Tribe now numbers 2707, the enrollment program is more important than ever. The Enrollment Program has 3 basic functions. 1. To assist applicants in the enrollment procedure. 2. Maintain the individual files of enrolled members. 3. Maintain a statistical data base of Grand Ronde members. To effectively provide the above services, the confiden tiality of all members must be guaranteed. If you believe that your confidentiality has been broken, please notify the enrollment director, or the programs manager immediately! The economic development office has developed a survey soon to be mailed out. The statistics gathered through this survey will provide the Tribal Council and Tribal prigrams with the necessary information for future planning. Please respond!! The enrollment applications are available on request. The applications have the eligibility requirements, and an instruction letter attached. The enrollment office also has orderforms and address of vital record units to assist clients in obtaining birth certificates. Please feel free to contact me if I can be of assistance.
