Challenges Faced by the Creek Nation in HUD CDBG Program Application, 1975-11-06
Item — Box: 33, Folder: 4
Identifier: CAC_CC_003_2_33_4_0003
The letter from Chief Claude Cox of the Creek Nation to Senator Bartlett expresses gratitude for a hearing on Indian Affairs and discusses the challenges faced by the Creek Nation in accessing HUD Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. The Creek Nation encountered difficulties in obtaining funding for housing rehabilitation and community buildings due to restrictive criteria imposed by the Oklahoma Area HUD Office. Chief Cox raised these concerns in a letter to HUD Secretary Carla Hills, but the issues have not been resolved. The Creek Nation and other Indian governments are in need of revised guidelines for block grant funding to address these challenges.
