(KNZA)--The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has awarded a total of nearly $1.9 million in funding to four local Native American Tribes to help support more affordable housing.
According to a new release from HUD, the Kickapoo Tribe has been awarded nearly $871,000 in Indian Housing Block Grant funding.
The Iowa Tribe of Kansas and Nebraska will receive just over $512,000; Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation, nearly $282,000; and Sac and Fox Nation, more than $219,000.
Indian Housing Block Grants primarily benefit low-income Native American and Alaska Native families.
The amount of each grant is based on a formula that considers local needs and housing units under management by the Tribe or Tribally Designated Housing Entity.
