Wichita Housing Authority

Wichita Housing Authority is a tribal government and housing authority registered in SAM.gov since February 7, 2006, located in Anadarko, Oklahoma. The organization is specifically classified as an Indian Tribe (Federally Recognized) and a Housing Authority for Public/Tribal entities. While detailed background information is limited, the organization's primary focus appears to be providing housing and community development services for Native American communities, with a specific emphasis on addressing housing needs through federal grant programs administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

The organization has consistently received federal grants, primarily through HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, focusing on two key grant programs: Indian Housing Block Grants (IHBG) and Indian Community Development Block Grants (ICDBG). These grants have supported a range of housing-related activities, including new housing construction, rehabilitation of existing housing units, housing acquisition, and infrastructure improvements to enable future housing development. Their most recent and substantial award is a $3,000,000 Project Grant under the IHBG program, awarded on August 14, 2024, which will support affordable housing initiatives in Anadarko, Oklahoma through August 22, 2027. Previous grants dating back to 2020 have similarly focused on community housing development, with project completion dates ranging from 2023 to 2028, demonstrating a consistent commitment to improving housing conditions for Native American communities through targeted federal funding.
