Tribe changes health plan
to add adult foster care
The Tribe has recently made changes to the Tribal Member Health
Plan, administered by UMR. Effective immediately, the health plan
will assist eligible Tribal members and spouses in payment to the
Grand Ronde Adult Foster Care Program.
Members needing assistance with their activities of daily living
due to a recent illness or hospitalization may now qualify for the
Tribe's health plan to pay the first 100 days of stay in the Adult
Foster Care Program.
Services are only covered when performed at the Confederated
Tribes of Grand Ronde Adult Foster Care facility, and will be pay
able at 90 percent of charges.
For further information, contact UMR at 1-888-CTGR-BEN or
CTGIi Risk Management at 503-879-2332.

In the Nov. 1 5 edition of Smoke Signals, the Tribe's Cultural Resources
Department requested help in identifying the six Native students
in this photo who attended Clover Leaf School in Grand Ronde. The
request was a success. Students are, from left: front row, Diane Linton
and Arnold Houck; middle row, Vera Leno and Gene LaBonte; back
row, Arlene Houck and Marion Mercier. The department also found
out that the photo was taken circa 1 928.
