Rehberg Announces $2.3 Million Housing Grant for Chippewa-Cree Tribe
WASHINGTON, DC - Montana's Congressman, Denny Rehberg, announced today Montana's Chippewa-Cree tribe will receive a $2.3 million housing grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The grant is awarded under the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-Determination Act of 1996.
"Home ownership is part of the American dream and I want to see that dream become a reality for more of Montana's Native American communities," said Rehberg a member of the House Appropriations Committee. "Many Native American families are forced to deal with substandard housing and this grant will help improve the situation for Montana's Chippewa-Cree."
