Police Department has
non-emergency text line
We Want To Hear From You!
That’s right, the Grand Ronde
Health & Wellness Center
Comment Box is located at
the entrance of the Health &
Wellness Center, next to the
drinking fountain. Share your
experience, good or bad with
us! We look forward to
hearing what you
have to say. 
The Grand Ronde Tribal Police Department has created a non-emer-
gency text line at 541-921-2927. “Even though this is mostly designed for
children, I don’t want adults thinking that they can’t use it as well.” said
Grand Ronde Tribal Police Chief Jake McKnight. McKnight said that
emergency situations still require calling 911. For more information,
contact McKnight at 503-879-1474. 

Dear Tribal Members,
Here are five legislative goals I’d like to accomplish:
• Expand our Services: New programs like Small Loans, a Foreclosure Prevention Grant, and Rental
Assistance for First Month/Last Month/Deposit. Technology Allowance for laptop or PC purchase.
• Continue to Inform our Membership: Take advantage of new and innovative online media tools like
podcasts, videos, and web-based conference apps like Facebook Live, Zoom, and others.
• Expand and Enhance the Rights of Members: Continue to increase the Right of Access to information for
Tribal members, and amend our Constitution to enhance the basic rights of Tribal Members beyond voting,
make Constitutional rights more realistic to exercise.
• Focus on Sustainability: Continue to invest in sustainable initiatives, tribally-owned businesses, and overall
government practices.
• Enrollment: Revisit the 1999 amendment. Enact equality in enrollment requirements, and resolve the “split
family” issue. Address the dwindling blood quantum and population growth issues.
