Federal Grant Award Summary

The Squaxin Island Tribe received $575,229 under the Indian Community Development Block Grant (ICDBG) Program (CFDA 14.862), administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Public and Indian Housing Office, with an award date of July 15, 2026, and completion deadline of April 30, 2027. The ICDBG program provides direct grants to federally recognized Indian tribes and Alaska Native communities to support the development of viable communities through infrastructure improvements, housing rehabilitation, public facilities, economic development initiatives, and public services.

While specific project activities are not detailed in the award documentation, the funding supports eligible uses under the ICDBG program such as water and sewer construction, community center development, housing weatherization for low-income families and elderly or disabled residents, health clinic establishment, and economic development activities. As a prime grant recipient with substantial experience managing federal awards across multiple agencies, the Squaxin Island Tribe will implement the funded activities in Shelton, Washington, serving its approximately 1,112 enrolled members and broader service population across Mason, Thurston, and Grays Harbor Counties.
