Fallon Paiute Shoshone Tribal Newsletter www.fpst.org Volume 12 Issue 9 September 2018 1 2 Laura Ijames Tribal Secretary Report
Our department participated in the Back to School Night which was held at the Fallon Convention Center. Jolene Thomas, Secretary’s Assistant, invested her time as a volunteer for the event where many backpacks and supplies given out for the new school year. It was good to see the whole community come out and support our youth. I would like to thank the FPST Co-Ed Softball team for donating their winning plaque to the tribe. Since the tribe donated to the team, they named the team after the tribe. I am glad to see that tribal donations are enriching our young adults in a positive way. If you would like to see the plaque and picture it will be in the lobby at the administration building.
A successful antelope hunt The Labor Day weekend is coming soon and I hope everyone has a safe holiday weekend.

Officer Mike Henry being sworn in by Chairman George Rosalinda Berreman has been hired as the Chairman’s Assistant State veterinarian warns against human and pet contact with bats Animal Disease Laboratory confirms rabid bats in Nevada (SPARKS, Nev.)- To date this year, the Nevada Depart- ment of Agriculture (NDA) Animal Disease Laboratory has confirmed six positive rabies cases (all in bats) in Clark and Washoe Counties. Rabies is common in bats throughout Nevada, and bat activity tends to increase between the months of May and October. “Always avoid direct contact with any bat, and never touch them without gloves,” Dr. JJ Goicoechea, NDA state veterinarian, said. “Don’t allow exposure to children or domestic animals.” Any bats, dead or alive, that may have been in contact with people or domestic animals should immediately be submitted to the Animal Disease Laboratory for testing and reported to county animal control and health authori- ties. Contact the lab before attempting to pick up a bat. Even though rabies prevalence in Nevada’s bat popula- tion is estimated at only one percent, the Animal Disease Laboratory confirms between 10 and 20 cases of bat ra- bies per year. To date, the lab has tested 61 bats, and six were positive for rabies (three in Clark County, and three in Washoe County). In the state of Nevada, rabies vaccination is required for dogs, cats and ferrets. Companion ani- mal owners are urged to have pets vac- cinated against rabies and maintain a regular vaccination schedule. Indoor cats should also be vaccinated, as bats can enter and exit residences unnoticed.

SAMHSA has delineated four major dimensions that support a life in recovery:
Health—overcoming or managing one’s disease(s) or symptoms—for example, abstaining from use of alcohol, illicit drugs, and non-prescribed medications if one has an addiction problem—and, for everyone in recovery, making informed, healthy choices that support physical and emotional well-being
Home—having a stable and safe place to live
Purpose—conducting meaningful daily activities, such as a job, school volunteerism, family care- taking, or creative endeavors, and the independence, income, and resources to participate in socie- ty
Community—having relationships and social networks that provide support, friendship, love, and hope
Increasingly, children’s issues have become more prevalent throughout the (tribe, community, and United States). This has raised concerns over the issues that afflict our kids. Children that grow up in a home where an adult abuses alcohol or other substances are at greater risk for experiencing disruptions to attachment, neglect, abuse, poverty, chaotic or unpredictable home experiences, witnessing violence, and other traumas. This puts children at increased risk for mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, oppositional disorders as well as learning difficulties, relationship issues, legal problems and their own substance use problems. The factors that protect children from these problems are not much different than adults. Having basic needs met, a stable and predictable home environment, healthy relationships with parents, parental involvement, strong connection to community, connection to culture, healthy peer relationships, and appropriate role modeling of healthy cop- ing skills.
“The most important thing that we need to understand as parents is that everything you say, everything you do, for the first seven years of that child's life is being recorded and becoming their behavior”.—Bruce Lipton
Recovery happens, become a voice of recovery. There are many resources and supports, find what will work for you, treatment, counseling, peer support, 12-Step meetings, Talking Circle and more. “I have seen that in any great undertaking it is not enough for a man to depend simply upon himself”. – Shooter Teton Sioux
Seek help and make a change for yourself, your family, your community and the future.
