Food service kiosk installed at Nixyáawii Governance Center

MISSION — A new kiosk will make it easier for clients of the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation’s (CTUIR) food distribution program to apply for food service. The self-service kiosk, at the Nixyáawii Governance Center (NGC), will allow people to apply for food services from the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR). FDPIR Manager Lawanda Bronson said Sygnal Partners, a Texas-based technology and business consulting firm, installed the kiosk on Nov. 3 inside the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) office and that it went online the next day. Before the kiosk was installed, applicants took completed paper applications to Bronson, who would then type the information into the FDPIR system for review. Now, using the kiosk, people can apply for services with digital applications going directly to Bronson.
