Oregon Department of Veterans’ Affairs Expands Program to Aid Veterans Pursuing Higher Education or Vocational Training
The Oregon Department of Veterans’ Affairs has expanded its Oregon Veterans Educational Bridge Grant (VEBG) Program, increasing the amount of funding available per applicant and greatly expanding eligibility for veterans facing challenges in completing their educational or vocational goals. The VEBG was established by the Oregon Legislature in 2019 to provide financial assistance grants to eligible veterans to alleviate financial stress during a gap period when required courses or training hours are unavailable, allowing them to remain enrolled in school or apprenticeship training. The original lifetime maximum grant award was capped at $5,000; however, with the Oregon Legislature's passage of House Bill 4132 earlier this year, that amount has been doubled to $10,000 beginning July 1, 2026. The Legislature also expanded eligibility to include veterans experiencing financial hardships that could endanger their ability to remain enrolled in a degree, apprenticeship or training program. Eligibility was previously limited to veterans who could not complete their programs due to the unavailability of required courses or training hours, or because of outstanding student debt preventing continued enrollment. The Veterans Educational Bridge Grant is available to Oregon resident veterans enrolled in eligible education and training programs throughout the state, including degree programs approved for federal GI Bill® benefits, licensed private career schools, registered apprenticeships and qualifying public employer on-the-job training programs. The program is also open to veterans who are not eligible for federal GI Bill® benefits, provided they meet Oregon’s definition of a veteran as outlined in Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) 407.087. “We know education and career training are crucial to helping transitioning veterans build stable, purposeful lives, but even a temporary financial setback can put those goals on hold,” said ODVA Director Dr. Nakeia Council Daniels. “These expanded benefits reflect Oregon’s continued commitment to removing barriers that stand between veterans and the futures they are working to build. Whether someone needs help overcoming an unexpected financial hardship, resolving a student account balance or bridging a gap in training, this program exists to help veterans stay on track and complete what they started.” Veterans who believe they may qualify are encouraged to apply. For more information about the Oregon Veterans Educational Bridge Grant Program or to apply, visit the ODVA Veterans Educational Bridge Grant webpage or contact the program coordinator at [email protected].

Little Paradise Fire, Douglas Co.
DFPA release - ELKTON, ORE: On Wednesday, July 8, 2026, at approximately 5:30 p.m., the Douglas Forest Protective Association's (DFPA) camera detection center identified a smoke column approximately 3.7 miles north of the incorporated city of Elkton, Oregon. Ground and aerial resources from DFPA and ODF Western Lane were immediately dispatched as part of a mutual aid response. DFPA's fixed-wing air attack aircraft arrived first on scene and reported a moderately moving, wind-driven slash fire in a previously logged timber unit. Strong winds caused spotting ahead of the main fire, prompting an aggressive initial attack by both aerial and ground resources. Two helicopters, including an ODF severity helicopter, conducted water bucket drops to slow the fire's forward spread and cool areas of active fire while firefighters on the ground constructed handline, established a progressive hose lay, and secured a water supply with water tenders. Dozers were utilized to construct a control line around the fire perimeter. A total of 9 DFPA engines, DFPA's fixed-wing air attack aircraft, two helicopters, two squads, one dozer, one water tender, overhead command staff, and three ODF engines were utilized during the initial attack. Firefighters continued suppression efforts throughout the night, completing 100% control line around the fire perimeter. Today's day shift is focused on mop-up operations within the estimated 3- to 3.5-acre fire area. Smoke may remain visible as crews continue to extinguish hot spots for several more days. No homes or structures were threatened during the incident. The cause of the fire remains under investigation. This will be the only update shared for this fire. Effective 12:01 a.m. on Saturday, July 11, 2026, Fire Danger will increase to HIGH on all lands protected by the Douglas Forest Protective Association (DFPA) due to increasing temperatures, lower relative humidity, and drying fuel conditions.

Robin study suggests fleeing isn’t necessarily wildlife’s first response to wildfire smoke
By Steve Lundeberg, OSU release - CORVALLIS, Ore. – Research by Oregon State University biologists suggests that toxic air stemming from wildfires won’t necessarily prompt animals to flee in search of better breathing conditions. The study of American robins led by OSU’s Jamie Cornelius is one of the few to examine how wildfire smoke, an increasingly common phenomenon as annual fire seasons become longer and more intense, affects animal behavior. Published in Integrative and Comparative Biology, the paper also presents a “stay, shift, go” framework for characterizing how wildlife species respond to smoky conditions. “Wildfire smoke is an increasing disturbance across much of the globe yet it hasn’t received much attention as a driver of animal behavior,” Cornelius said. “Animals may have evolved strategies to cope with smoke exposure, but what those strategies are and how they affect health outcomes are largely unknown.” Cornelius and collaborators at UCLA and Cornell University found, somewhat surprisingly, that the birds in their study didn’t simply fly away as foul air set in. “Robins in the post-breeding season, despite not being tied to a nest location, did not just leave when it got smoky,” said Cornelius, an ecophysiologist in the OSU College of Science. “Instead they shifted behavior to reduce activity, presumably to limit the negative consequences of smoke inhalation, and oriented differently according to prevailing wind conditions.” To learn what the birds were doing, the scientists captured 21 adult robins in fire-prone habitat in Oregon, affixed them with data-transmitting bands and monitored their movements during the 2023 and 2024 wildfire seasons. The researchers hypothesized that the robins would follow a “go” strategy to avoid smoke from nearby wildfires. What they found, though, was that the birds made shorter-distance movements as wildfire smoke intensity grew. They also learned that robins didn’t change their orientation behavior relative to wind direction under light smoke, but they were more likely to orient into the wind in the presence of heavy smoke, which tended to reduce their smoke exposure. “It’s possible that robins do attempt to flee high-density smoke with long-distance movements and that the levels of smoke that occurred during our study were not quite high enough to induce that response,” Cornelius said. “There could be some threshold that triggers the ‘go’ response that was not reached.” Often detectable by sight and/or smell, wildfire smoke is a complex mixture of gases and particulate matter that can be harmful to people and animals when inhaled or ingested. With large fires, Cornelius notes, potentially billions of organisms are exposed to toxic air as the smallest particles remain airborne indefinitely and can travel for hundreds or thousands of miles. “Animals very close to wildfires are obviously at risk of serious injury or death from exposure to extreme heat and survive only through behavioral responses like fleeing or seeking shelter,” she said. “We’re trying to understand the behaviors animals adopt when they are exposed to hazardous smoke but not in imminent fire danger.” The researchers conceptualize three buckets to hold those behaviors. Animals can stay, resisting changes to behavior. They can shift, altering their behavior to reduce negative impacts. Or they can go, moving somewhere with cleaner air. Species-specific traits, such as locomotion, are factors that can affect an animal’s smoke response. Additionally, Cornelius said, it’s likely that some of the responses will prompt other species to alter their own behaviors. For example, a change in prey behavior may have consequences for predator behavior, even if the predator isn’t directly responding to smoke. Many questions remain to be answered by future research, Cornelius added. Can all animals detect smoke, and when do they adaptively respond with behaviors that reduce their exposure? Do behaviors or response thresholds change depending on habitat, time of year, age, stage in the annual cycle, evolutionary history or other contextual factors? “Even though research on animal responses to wildfire smoke has accelerated as climate change alters fire regimes, there is a lot we don’t know,” she said. “But emerging evidence definitely suggests that animal health is impaired by acute exposure to smoke.” OSU research associate Alex Jahn and graduate students Dorothy Zahor and Ken Glynn also worked on the study, which was funded by the National Geographic Society, the National Science Foundation and the La Kretz Center for California Conservation Science.

OHA urges vaccination amid global rise in clade I mpox transmission
Mpox type can cause more severe symptoms than clade II version of virus - OHA release - PORTLAND, Ore.—Public health officials are urging people at higher risk of exposure to mpox to get vaccinated—and for health care providers to watch for symptoms among patients—as transmission of a more serious type of the virus increases globally. Community transmission of clade I mpox virus type is increasing in several countries around the world, including in western Europe, and central and eastern Africa. Symptoms of clade I mpox may be associated with more severe disease than clade II mpox, which caused the ongoing, global outbreak of the virus among gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men that started in 2022. Dean Sidelinger, M.D., M.S.Ed., health officer and state epidemiologist at Oregon Health Authority (OHA), said people at higher risk of mpox infection should get the vaccine, known as JYNNEOS, as soon as possible. “A recent uptick in mpox cases in other states has primarily been among men who have sex with men,” Sidelinger said. “While June is Pride Month, Pride events and festivals attracting gay men continue through the summer and into the fall. Some attendees at these events might engage in sexual behavior with other folks they meet at these events so should consider vaccination to protect against mpox, if they haven’t gotten the vaccine already.” It’s also important for health care providers to know what symptoms to look for when seeing patients, Sidelinger said, and knowing who is most at risk. Mpox spreads primarily through close, skin-to-skin contact. Most often, it has occurred through intimate or sexual contact, or during contact with the lesions of an individual with mpox through a caregiving relationship, such as a parent caring for a child or an adult caretaker of another person. Infection rates are highest among people living in Multnomah County, those ages 30 to 39, and members of the Hispanic and Black/African American communities. Most cases were men who reported having sex with men, and most identified as gay or bisexual men. In Oregon, one mpox case was reported in January 2026, and there have been no reported cases since then. There were five cases in 2022 when the global mpox outbreak began, and 10 cases—the state’s highest yearly count—in 2023. In 2024, there were nine cases, and eight cases in 2025. People who suspect they have mpox should contact their health care provider to let them know before going in to be seen. The provider may recommend testing for mpox. Those who don’t have a health care provider can call 2-1-1 or their local public health authority for help finding a clinic or health care provider. About JYNNEOS: The JYNNEOS mpox vaccine is highly effective. According to a May 2023 study published in the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, the vaccine was found to be 75% effective for those receiving one dose and 86% effective for those who had two doses. JYNNEOS is licensed as a series of two doses administered 28 days apart. If more than 28 days have passed, patients should receive the second dose as soon as possible and do not need to restart the series. JYNNEOS vaccine is expected to be effective against both clades of mpox. For patients who have received two JYNNEOS doses, no additional or booster doses are currently recommended. Vaccination is not recommended for patients who have previously recovered from mpox. JYNNEOS is available through health care providers and commercial pharmacies, and it remains free to Oregon Health Plan members. Oregon law requires vaccine’s cost to be covered for others with commercial insurance. For more information about mpox in Oregon, visit OHA’s mpox website.

Sentenced for Drug Trafficking, including Oregon Coast
U.S. Attorney's Office - District of Oregon release - PORTLAND, Ore.—A Mexican national was sentenced to federal prison yesterday for conspiring to distribute methamphetamine in the Portland area, the Oregon coast, and Olympia, Washington, leading to the murder of a victim who owed a drug debt. Fernando Adolip Cruz-Lerma, 25, was sentenced to 168 months in federal prison and five years of supervised release. He was also ordered to pay over $3,000 in restitution. According to court documents, in April and May 2019, Cruz-Lerma conspired with others to engage in drug trafficking. In April, Cruz-Lerma transported a victim from the state of Washington to Clackamas County due to a drug debt that the victim owed to members of the drug trafficking conspiracy. The victim was killed by members of the drug trafficking conspiracy in furtherance of the conspiracy. Cruz-Lerma assisted with leaving the victim’s body along a rural road in Clackamas County after the victim had been killed. In May 2019, Cruz-Lerma distributed approximately two pounds of methamphetamine. He returned to Mexico the following month. In May 2023, Cruz-Lerma’s co-conspirator, Marcos Alonso Castillo-Bernal, was sentenced to 26 years of imprisonment. A few days after that sentencing hearing, Cruz-Lerma flew from Mexico to Calgary, Canada, and was arrested by Canadian authorities on the arrest warrant issued in the District of Oregon. On June 6, 2023, a federal grand jury in Portland returned a superseding indictment charging Cruz-Lerma with conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute and distribute controlled substances and distribution of methamphetamine. On April 7, 2026, Cruz-Lerma pleaded guilty to conspiring to distribute and distributing controlled substances. U.S. Attorney Scott E. Bradford for the District of Oregon made the announcement. This case was investigated by the DEA, the FBI, the Portland Police Bureau, the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office, the Clackamas County Interagency Task Force (CCITF) and the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office Homicide and Violent Crimes Unit. The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Oregon is prosecuting the case. The Justice Department’s Office of International Affairs worked with Canadian authorities to secure the arrest and July 2024 extradition of Cruz-Lerma from Canada. CCITF, led by the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office, works to disrupt and dismantle drug trafficking organizations operating in and around Clackamas County, and reduce illegal drugs and related crimes throughout the community. The task force is comprised of members from the Canby Police Department, Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office, Oregon State Police, the FBI, and the Oregon National Guard Counterdrug Task Force. CCITF is supported by our community with the passage of the Public Safety Levy and grant funding from the Oregon-Idaho High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) program. This case is part of the Homeland Security Task Force (HSTF) initiative established by Executive Order 14159, Protecting the American People Against Invasion. The HSTF is a whole-of-government partnership dedicated to eliminating criminal cartels, foreign gangs, transnational criminal organizations, and human smuggling and trafficking rings operating in the United States and abroad. Through historic interagency collaboration, the HSTF directs the full might of United States law enforcement towards identifying, investigating, and prosecuting the full spectrum of crimes committed by these organizations, which have long fueled violence and instability within our borders. In performing this work, the HSTF places special emphasis on investigating and prosecuting those engaged in child trafficking or other crimes involving children. The HSTF further utilizes all available tools to prosecute and remove the most violent criminal aliens from the United States. HSTF Portland comprises agents and officers from FBI, HSI, DEA, USMS, IRS-CI, ATF, USPIS, CBP, TSA, U.S. Coast Guard, Oregon Air, Army National Guard Counterdrug program, and Oregon-Idaho HIDTA with the prosecution being led by the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Oregon.
