Additionally, there is a proposal to realign the organizational structure to improve the housing program delivery system and expedite action on individual programs.

Hanson, Deputy Administrator of Operations for the Farmers Home Administration, discussed the agency's efforts to improve services for Native Americans, including loan and grant programs specifically for Indians. The agency took actions to strengthen outreach programs, improve communication, and provide training for staff to better serve Indian populations. Examples were given of loans made to tribes and individual Indians for housing and water system projects.
