The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Office of Policy Development and Research (PD&R), in partnership with the Office of Native American Programs (ONAP), has just launched a new effort to support and increase sustainable construction in Native communities. HUD is working with other Federal Agencies and key stakeholders to identify and overcome barriers to the adoption of sustainable construction practices in Indian Country. HUD will be issuing a call seeking tribes interested in this effort. Participating tribes will receive technical assistance to support their adoption of sustainable construction practices in residential construction or rehabilitation projects. HUD will be providing training on sustainable construction practices.
