OUR CORE VALUES Respect, Compassion, Justice, Excellence, Stewardship Dear Friend of Providence, Every year we feel blessed to have your support and commitment, and 2013 was no exception. Because of your generosity and dedication, Providence in Oregon took many important steps forward in our ongoing journey of providing excellent, compassionate service to our patients and communities. We hope you enjoy and are inspired by the stories in this annual report – all of which you helped make possible. Whether it’s a nursing center resident enjoying greater mobility, a mother who knows her child is well cared for while she receives medical treatment, family members who feel blessed knowing their loved one is receiving excellent care near the end of life, a father whose sudden stroke is quickly assessed and treated close to home, or a young woman who faces breast cancer with new hope and possibility … all of these stories, and many more, exist because you care. “Thank you” seems inadequate, but it is heartfelt. Providence literally couldn’t be Providence without your faith, enthusiasm, support, talents and energy. Thank you wholeheartedly on behalf of all those we serve. Dave Underriner Carolyn Winter Chief Executive Chief Development Officer Oregon Region Oregon Region PROVIDENCE FOUNDATIONS IN OREGON 3 2013 ANNUAL REPORT PROVIDENCE FOUNDATIONS IN OREGON 2013 Financial Summary Following are the 2013 totals for Providence Foundations in Oregon, which are: • Providence Benedictine Nursing Center Foundation • Providence Child Center Foundation • Providence Community Health Foundation, Medford • Providence Hood River Memorial Hospital Foundation • Providence Milwaukie Foundation • Providence Newberg Health Foundation • Providence Portland Medical Foundation • Providence St. Vincent Medical Foundation • Providence Seaside Hospital Foundation • Providence Willamette Falls Medical Foundation Number of donors ................................................... 12,217 Fundraising income ........................................ $18,364,000 Institutional support for expense ................... $3,300,000 Total distribution for charity, research and operating capital expense ................. $20,028,000 PROVIDENCE FOUNDATIONS IN OREGON 4 2013 ANNUAL REPORT 2013 HIGHLIGHTS Providence Benedictine Nursing Center Foundation ■ Caring for bodies and souls At Providence Benedictine Nursing Center, spiritual care is as important as medical care. The center’s spiritual care team includes Father Aelred Yockey, two chaplains and many volunteers. Father Aelred, who travels from Mt. Angel Abbey to say Mass six days a week, offers sacraments to residents who can’t attend Mass. He also prays with, consoles and sings individually to them. We can provide this service because of the generosity of Felix and Maryellen Dilger. Each year earnings from the Felix and Maryellen Dilger Pastoral Care Endowment offset the cost of having a priest working at Providence Benedictine Nursing Center. ■ Buying specialized equipment Donors play a significant role in helping residents heal at Providence Benedictine Nursing Center by helping buy equipment that the center couldn’t otherwise afford. Donors helped purchase a walking jacket that, when attached to a ceiling lift, allows wheelchair-bound patients to stand up and walk. Other purchases include a wheelchair designed to fit the specific needs of patients and residents. This gives them more freedom of movement, allows better participation in their rehabilitation, and provides mobility for eating meals in the dining room and attending activities. ■ Providing a fresh new look and feel Father Aelred Yockey, a member of Providence Benedictine The nursing center has a new and greatly refreshed look, thanks to a five-month, Nursing Center’s spiritual care team, prays with resident Edith Kapka. $1.5 million renovation. The work included new floors, paint, signage and assorted minor remodeling. Foundation donors paid for renovations to a shower room, dining room floor, chapel, kitchen floor and nursing station. The nursing station remodel transformed one unit’s common area into a more usable, comfortable and accessible area for staff, residents and their families. (Continued on next page) PROVIDENCE BENEDICTINE NURSING CENTER FOUNDATION 5 2013 ANNUAL REPORT 2013 HIGHLIGHTS Providence Benedictine Nursing Center Foundation (continued) ■ Growing support, growing gardens Donations continue to build the center’s garden endowment, which will help pay for better use and coordination of our gardens – a favorite area for our residents and their families. Many studies show that interaction with nature helps patients heal faster with less need for pain medications and less depression. One patient said, “I was devastated when I learned I would need to go from the hospital to a nursing home, but your garden has saved my life. I don’t know what I would do without it.” Resident Josephine Bielenberg and Ethan Emch, from Providence Benedictine’s Child Development Center, help release ladybugs in the Providence Benedictine therapy garden.

  • Historical Overview
    HISTORIC CONTEXT STATEMENT The following is a brief history of Oregon City. The intent is to provide a general overview, rather than a comprehensive history. Setting Oregon City, the county seat of Clackamas County, is located southeast of Portland on the east side of the Willamette River, just below the falls. Its unique topography includes three terraces, which rise above the river, creating an elevation range from about 50 feet above sea level at the riverbank to more than 250 feet above sea level on the upper terrace. The lowest terrace, on which the earliest development occurred, is only two blocks or three streets wide, but stretches northward from the falls for several blocks. Originally, industry was located primarily at the south end of Main Street nearest the falls, which provided power. Commercial, governmental and social/fraternal entities developed along Main Street north of the industrial area. Religious and educational structures also appeared along Main Street, but tended to be grouped north of the commercial core. Residential structures filled in along Main Street, as well as along the side and cross streets. As the city grew, the commercial, governmental and social/fraternal structures expanded northward first, and with time eastward and westward to the side and cross streets. Before the turn of the century, residential neighborhoods and schools were developing on the bluff. Some commercial development also occurred on this middle terrace, but the business center of the city continued to be situated on the lower terrace. Between the 1930s and 1950s, many of the downtown churches relocated to the bluff as well.

  • Willamette Falls Recertification Review Report 2018
    Willamette Falls (LIHI # 33) Recertification Review Report Introduction and Overview This report reviews the application submitted by Portland General Electric (applicant) to the Low Impact Hydropower Institute (LIHI) for LIHI recertification for the Willamette Falls Hydroelectric Project (Facility) located on the Willamette River in Clackamas County, Oregon. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) relicensed the project (FERC 2233) in 2005 for the operation and maintenance of the 15.18 megawatt run-of-river project. This application review for recertification was conducted using the new, 2nd Edition Handbook that was published in March 2016. Background: The project is located at river mile 26.5 on the Willamette River within the city limits of Oregon City (to the east) and West Linn (to the west) in north-central Oregon, approximately 10 miles from Portland and 40 miles from the Willamette’s confluence with the Columbia River. The project is located in a populated, industrial urban setting at the site of Willamette Falls, a natural waterfall that marks the head of the tidally influenced lower Willamette River. The applicant has operated hydroelectric facilities at the site since 1889. Willamette Falls (the Falls) is a horseshoe-shaped, 40-foot-high, natural waterfall that marks the head of the tidally influenced lower Willamette River. The general project area has been home to hydroelectric generation for more than 125 years, beginning with PGE’s Station A in 1889 and continuing to this day with PGE’s T.W. Sullivan (TWS) Powerhouse, built in 1895. Multiple paper mills have also operated at the Falls for more than a century.

Any republication, retransmission, reproduction, or sale of all or part of this curriculum is prohibited. Introduction Welcome to the Grand Ronde Tribal History curriculum unit. We are thankful that you are taking the time to learn and teach this curriculum to your class. This unit has truly been a journey. It began as a pilot project in the fall of 2013 that was brought about by the need in Oregon schools for historically accurate and culturally relevant curriculum about Oregon Native Americans and as a response to countless requests from Oregon teachers for classroom- ready materials on Native Americans. The process of creating the curriculum was a Tribal wide effort. It involved the Tribe’s Education Department, Tribal Library, Land and Culture Department, Public Affairs, and other Tribal staff. The project would not have been possible without the support and direction of the Tribal Council. As the creation was taking place the Willamina School District agreed to serve as a partner in the project and allow their fourth grade teachers to pilot it during the 2013-2014 academic year. It was also piloted by one teacher from the Pleasant Hill School District. Once teachers began implementing the curriculum, feedback was received regarding the effectiveness of lesson delivery and revisions were made accordingly. The teachers allowed Tribal staff to visit during the lessons to observe how students responded to the curriculum design and worked after school to brainstorm new strategies for the lessons and provide insight from the classroom teacher perspective.

  • Appendix E: the City's Natural Environment
    APPENDIX E The City’s Natural Environment APPENDIX E The City’s Natural Environment The City’s Environmental Setting General Characteristics Portland is situated at 20 feet above sea level, near the confluence of the Columbia and Willamette rivers, about 65 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean. It lies midway between the lower Coast Range to the west and the high Cascades Range to the east, each about 30 miles distant. Portland’s varied topography includes steep hills, isolated volcanic cones, low rolling hills and extensive flat areas. The area is composed primarily of alluvial deposits and Columbia River basalts. Much of the city is located in the Willamette Valley Plains ecoregion, although steeper portions of the Tualatin Hills on the west side are characteristic of Willamette Valley Hills and Coastal Mountains ecoregions (Clarke and others 1991). Portland has a mild marine climate that is heavily influenced by the mountain ranges east and west of the city. The Coast Range protects the Portland area from Pacific storms, while the Cascades prevent colder continental air masses from invading western Oregon. In winter, the average temperature is 40°F and the average minimum temperature is 34°F. In summer the average temperature is 65°F with an average daily maximum of 74 to 78°F (Rockey 2002). The Cascades also lift moisture-laden westerly winds from the Pacific, driving local rainfall patterns. Average annual rainfall in the Portland area is approximately 37 inches. Nearly 90 percent of the annual rainfall occurs from October through May. Only 9 percent of the annual rainfall occurs between June and September, with 3 percent in July and August.

They have been doing so since time immemorial, an important indigenous concept which describes a time continuum that spans from ancient times to present day. In post- contact years, interactions expanded to include explorers, traders and missionaries, who brought with them new opportunities for trade and intermarriage as well as the devastating circumstances brought by disease, warfare, and the reservation era. Through cultural adaptation and uninterrupted treaty rights, the CTUIR never ceased to continue to travel to the lower Columbia and Willamette River and falls for seasonal traditional practice and for other purposes.

  • A VISION for SALMON and STEELHEAD Goals to Restore Thriving Salmon and Steelhead to the Columbia River Basin
    A VISION for SALMON and STEELHEAD Goals to Restore Thriving Salmon and Steelhead to the Columbia River Basin Phase 1 Report of the Columbia Basin Partnership Task Force of the Marine Fisheries Advisor y Committee I appreciate that the Columbia Basin Partnership has proven to be a unique forum of people representing diverse regional sovereigns and stakeholders with their own discrete missions and clearly focused on working together, at times outside of their comfort zones, to collaboratively develop far reaching aspirational goals for salmon and steelhead across the Columbia River Basin. — Bob Austin, Upper Snake River Tribes The Columbia Basin Partnership Task Force was convened in 2017 by NOAA Fisheries and the Marine Fisheries Advisory Committee to develop shared goals and a comprehensive vision for the future of Columbia Basin salmon and steelhead. The Task Force is an unprecedented collaboration of different interests from across the Basin landscape—environmental, fishing, agricultural, utility, and river-user groups; local recovery groups; the states of Idaho, Montana, Washington, and Oregon; and federally recognized tribes. The process arose from growing frustration across the region with uneven progress and conflicts around fish conservation and restoration efforts and a widespread desire to find a better way. This report presents a shared purpose gained through these collaborations and envisions a future where coming generations enjoy healthy and abundant salmon and steelhead runs across the Columbia Basin.
