Book excerpt: HUD has traditionally provided federal housing assistance to Native Americans through many of the same programs that have provided public housing to the nation's low-income families. However, this changed significantly on October 26, 1996, when the President signed the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-Determination Act of 1996 (NAHASDA) into law. This act separated Indian housing programs from public housing programs and provides federal housing assistance for Indian tribes in a manner that recognizes the tribes' right of self-determination and self-governance. This report examines certain aspects of HUD's implementation of NAHASDA.
