The press release from the Housing Assistance Council Inc. discusses the need for improved Indian housing programs, with the executive director Gordon Cavanaugh outlining six administrative changes to streamline the delivery of housing. These changes include giving tribes coordinating responsibilities for housing programs, establishing an Assistant Secretary of Indian Programs at HUD, allocating a minimum of 10,000 units for Indian housing, and holding regular hearings in Congress. Cavanaugh emphasizes the importance of providing adequate subsidy programs to house low-income Indian families and calls for federal policy makers to address the unique challenges of Indian housing.
