CIHA to get $2 million from HUD

The Colville Indian Housing Authority has been awarded $2 million from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that can be used for infrastructure, community buildings, housing rehabilitation, land acquisition, economic development, and more.

The funds are among more than $16 million of $72.6 million going to 38 communities through the Indian Community Development Block Grant (ICDBG) program, including $16,272,000 to 9 entities in Alaska, Oregon, and Washington to support American Indian and Alaskan Native families on Indian reservations and in other Indian areas.

“We continue to make strong community development investments in Indian country,” said HUD Agency Head, The Honorable Adrianne Todman. “This funding allows Tribal Nations to meet the needs of their communities and make critical infrastructure improvements.”
