![["The Inter-Tribal Council, Inc. is representing eight tribes in Oklahoma and is concerned about the state of Indian Housing Programs. They believe there are many deficiencies in the current housing projects and emphasize the need for continued improvement and maintenance. They suggest that more attention to planning, completion, detail, and the needs of Indian families is necessary to solve the housing problem. They also propose that a specific government entity be responsible for administering Indian Housing Programs."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_6_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Housing,%201973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_6_0010_thumbnail.jpg "Report on Indian Housing Deficiencies and Solutions: A Call for Attention and Action")

Edwards, Executive Director of the Absentee Shawnee Tribal Housing Authority, expressed gratitude for past efforts but highlighted challenges in obtaining housing units for the tribe. They have received allocations but face delays in completing units due to bureaucratic hurdles. The tribe has a high demand for housing due to economic conditions, and statistics on housing needs are deemed inaccurate. The Authority recommends new legislation to provide more housing units for Indian people. Concerns are raised about the allocation of housing units for the state of Oklahoma and the possible relocation of the Indian Housing program office.
