I I 8 Smoke Signals Help: mentors needed Tribal kids in need of companionship and positive role modeling. The Indian Child Welfare (ICW) Program is interested in developing a mentor program for our Tribal children. Many of our children are in need of companionship and positive role modeling. The purpose of the mentor pro gram is to provide at risk youth with a relationship that will help to foster healthy lifestyle choices. Mentors may spend 4 to 6 hours per week with a child. Mentors will be compensated for their time. The ICW Program would like to develop a list of people interested in mentoring a Tribal child. These children need consistency so it is important that mentors are able to make a 3 to 6 month commitment. If you are inter ested in more information please contact Danis Bazzy-Bucknell or Dana Leno at 1-800-242-8196.

TAAP is an annual program that encourages the continuation of traditional artis tic skills within communities by awarding stipends to master traditional art ists to teach a specific cultural tradition to one or more apprentices. An aver age of ten are funded each year. The postmark deadline for applications is July 21, 2000. All traditional artists are eligible for this program. Traditional arts are forms of artistic expression learned as part of the cultural life of a community (such as an ethnic group, Tribe, religious or occupational group, or region). Traditional arts reflect the history, culture and values of a community. They are often learned informally, passed down from one person to another. Masters and apprentices apply together to the program and can apply for up to $2500. They decide when and where they will meet to work during the year and set their own goals for what they will achieve during the appren ticeship. Apprenticeships last eight months (September through April) and generally involve 80-120 hours of instruction time. Apprenticeships must be Oregon residents and from the same cultural com munity as the master artist.
