Indian housing block grants

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $4,113,522 Project Grant under the Indian Housing Block Grants (CFDA 14.867) program to the Mowa Choctaw Housing Authority, a tribally owned firm and tribal government. This funding will support a range of affordable housing activities benefitting low-income Native American families in the tribal area through July 2028. The grant will enable the Mowa Choctaw Housing Authority to develop, maintain, and operate affordable housing units, along with associated infrastructure projects, on tribal lands. Additionally, the authority has received over $6 million in IHBG funding from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office over the past three years, including a $698,585 Indian Community Development Block Grant in 2020 to support related projects through 2025. The Mowa Choctaw Housing Authority has demonstrated experience managing federal grants and collaborating with government agencies to serve tribal housing and infrastructure needs.
