The Yurok Indian Housing Authority (YIHA) was awarded a $3,996,913 Project Grant on January 14, 2025 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Indian Housing Block Grants (IHBG) program (CFDA 14.867). The grant funds will enable YIHA to provide affordable, safe, and decent housing to low-income tribal members through a range of services including new housing construction, rehabilitation of existing units, housing acquisition, infrastructure improvements, and other housing-related community development initiatives. This award is part of HUD's IHBG program, which provides formula-based grant funding to tribal governments and tribally designated housing entities to develop and operate affordable housing in Native American communities. YIHA has been a consistent recipient of IHBG awards, receiving over $9 million in formula grants since 2020 to address affordable housing needs. Additionally, YIHA partners as a sub-recipient on grants from the California Department of Housing and Community Development for Yurok at-risk homeless public facility projects.
