Hawaii, First Hawaiian Bank RATE THIS I hate it I love it STORY TOOLS Print This WASHINGTON Tribes can still get a piece of $ 25 million in grants from an often-threatened government program but they have to act fast. The deadline for applying for $ 25 million from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's 2004 Rural Housing and Economic Development program is May 24. The Bush administration tried to zero out the program for 2004, but Congress reinstated it. It has done the same thing for the 2005 RHED program, whose status is in limbo. Federally recognized tribes are one of the groups that gets targeted for RHED funding, although there is no specific set aside. In previous years tribes have taken down 25 33 percent of awards, meaning $ 6 to $ 8 million each year that can be used for housing projects or economic development.

The changes are: Makes the program available for owner occupied single family or duplex homes but not investment property. Limits the subsidized portion of loans to $200,000. Allows AHFC to offer blended rate mortgages; a loan amount in excess of the subsidized portion would be at market rates. Allows multi family non-owner occupied housing loans to be subsidized only if the tenants are certificated teachers. A September 2000 legislative audit concluded that the need for the program has been eliminated through other programs and private entities meeting the needs of homeowners. Testimony before the Senate Finance Committee showed that the program is a vital program in small communities.

A Quiet Crisis: Federal Funding and Unmet Needs in Indian Country reveals that federal funding directed to Native Americans through programs at federal agencies has not been sufficient to address the basic and very urgent needs of indigenous peoples. Among the myriad unmet needs are: health care, education, public safety, housing, and rural development. The United States Commission on Civil Rights finds that significant disparities in federal funding exist between Native Americans and other groups in our nation, as well as the general population. Among immediate requirements for increased funding are: infrastructure development, without which tribal governments cannot properly deliver services; tribal courts, which preserve order in tribal communities, provide for restitution of wrongs, and lend strength and validity to other tribal institutions; and tribal priority allocations, which permit tribes to pursue their own priorities and allow tribal governments to respond to the needs of their citizens. The following are links to the four federal departments which are most closely involved in Native American issues - the U.S. Departments of
