Indian Housing Block Grant (IHBG)

The Indian Housing Block Grant (IHBG) is a federal program that provides funding to support housing initiatives for Native American tribes and Alaska Native villages. Its goal is to improve, develop, and sustain safe, affordable, and quality housing within these communities. The grant helps address issues like housing shortages, infrastructure needs, and overcrowding, promoting healthier living conditions. Managed by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), IHBG empowers tribes to plan and carry out projects tailored to their unique housing challenges, fostering community stability and self-sufficiency.
