Current and Past Indian Housing Plans
What
is the Indian Housing Block Grant (IHBG) program?
The Indian Housing Block Grant
Program (IHBG) is a formula grant that provides a range of affordable housing activities on Indian
reservations and Indian areas. The block grant approach to housing for Native Americans was enabled by
the Native American Housing Assistance and Self Determination Act of 1996 (NAHASDA).
Eligible
IHBG recipients are Federally recognized Indian tribes or their tribally designated housing entity
(TDHE), and a limited number of state recognized tribes who were funded under the Indian Housing
Program authorized by the United States Housing Act of 1937 (USHA). With the enactment of NAHASDA,
Indian tribes are no longer eligible for assistance under the USHA.
Each year, recipients of
Indian Housing Block Grant use EPIC to electronically submit an Indian Housing Plan (IHP) to receive
funding and complete an Annual Performance Report (APR) (Form HUD-52737). EPIC is an internet-based
application that automates much of the process for completing and submitting IHPs/APRs, IHP
Amendments, IHP Waivers, and Tribal Certifications.
Eligible activities include housing
development, assistance to housing developed under the Indian Housing Program, housing services to
eligible families and individuals, crime prevention and safety, and model activities that provide
creative approaches to solving affordable housing problems.
