![["Senator Dewey F. Bartlett wrote to the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare in support of the Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma's application for funding for a vocational-technical education program. The tribe is aiming to break the cycle of employment instability and poverty within their community. The Department assured Senator Bartlett that the application will be reviewed and final funding decisions will be made by late August, with successful applicants being notified beforehand. Senator Bartlett requested fair and equitable consideration for the tribe's application."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_31_12_0000-Indians%20Affairs,%20Education,%20Kickapoo%20Tribe%20Application,%201978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_31_12_0001_thumbnail.jpg "Support for Kickapoo Tribe's Vocational-Technical Education Program")
![["The document is a letter written by Neal A. McCaleb to Senator Henry Bellmon regarding the rules for the administration of the \"Indian Set Aside\" for community development block grants. McCaleb believes that the priorities set by the Department of Housing and Urban Development are too restrictive and not in line with the desires of tribal leaders in Oklahoma. He has collected responses from tribal leaders expressing the need for more flexibility in selecting project priorities. McCaleb urges Senator Bellmon to transmit this information to the appropriate persons in the Department of Housing and Urban Development for consideration in the preparation of the rules. The document also includes responses from tribal leaders outlining their high-priority needs for projects such as street improvements, water systems, housing rehabilitation, and more."]](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_5_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Housing,%201973%20Mar/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_5_0015_thumbnail.jpg "Empowering Tribal Leadership: Community Development Block Grants")
![["During a Senate Subcommittee field hearing on Indian housing in Oklahoma, Glenn W. 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. Edwards believes the Oklahoma City office is best equipped to address the tribe's housing needs."]](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_2_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Housing,%201973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_2_0016_thumbnail.jpg "Challenges and Recommendations for Indian Housing in Oklahoma: A Senate Subcommittee Field Hearing")

![["The document from the United States Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs to Senator Dewey Bartlett discusses the need for new housing units for Indian families in the Anadarko Area. The document mentions the discrepancy between the Bureau's statistics and the number of housing applications on file, attributing it to the mobility of Indian families. The Bureau's Annual Housing Inventory Report estimates that 2,198 new dwelling units are needed to address overcrowding and substandard living conditions. The document also highlights the challenges in accurately determining the number of Indian families moving within the area. The enclosed housing inventory data provides a breakdown of housing needs by tribe in the Anadarko Area."]](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_2_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Housing,%201973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_2_0023_thumbnail.jpg "Indian Housing Mobility in the Anadarko Area: A Report to Senator Bartlett")
