KIC Web Site Policy

Role of the Web Site
Our goal for the KIC web site is to provide a convenient source of information for the KIC membership and visitors who are interested in the latest events in Ketchikan Indian Community. We hope you find everything that you are looking for here. Please feel free to contact us for any further information you may need.

It is our intention that KIC’s web site should serve at least the following roles:

·a format to share and collaborate with the intent of expanding our cultural knowledge through the use of technology.

·a strategic line of communication between KIC’s Tribal Council, KIC’s programs and our community at large;

·a means of disseminating informational materials to all KIC members (both local and nationwide) and interested individuals.

·a way of providing information about current special service events for KIC members

Information Policy
We aim to ensure that the information on these pages is relevant, timely and accurate. We will try to indicate who is responsible for each item of information we place on this site, and we will identify our sources wherever possible. Please let us know of any errors or omissions.

Communication Policy
Because we want this site to be a stepping stone for two-way communication between KIC and the world 'out there', we have included a link on all pages which takes you straight to general contact information. We also provide specific contacts on many pages, so you can get in touch with us for further information, to pass on your comments and suggestions, or to request further information.

Editorial Policy
Many of the people who have provided source material for this site are also responsible for delivering one or more of KIC’s many services. Each of the main sections of KIC’s web site is maintained with direct input from the respective subject, and we are working to identify contact persons within KIC for all lines of enquiry arising from visits to the Web site.

This Web site has been developed as part of the KIC 2004 Strategic Plan Initiative; specifically the goal to communicate more effectively with our members. This goal has encouraged the adoption of relevant communications technology to support and enhance the activities of KIC both internally and externally. The development of the Web site is overseen by the Information Technology Department which relies heavily on the input of KIC members and staff. The ultimate responsibility for the site (as with all publicly released information) rests with the General Manager of KIC.
