    Thirty federal programs can fund Native American housing. GAO told the Senate that the money has not kept pace with construction costs, and that Tribes mostly use it to hold existing housing together rather than build.

    GAO testified before the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs on September 17, from ongoing work. Its preliminary observations: 30 federal programs can provide housing support targeted to Native American communities — American Indian, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian — the largest being the Indian Housing Block Grant. Tribes and tribal organizations GAO contacted said they use those programs primarily to maintain existing housing and, to a lesser extent, to construct new, and named limitations including funding that 'had not kept pace with rising construction costs' and certain program restrictions. GAO is also examining homelessness that does not look like homelessness in the federal data — including 'doubling up', temporarily staying with others.
