![["The document is a series of correspondence regarding allegations of mismanagement and discrimination in the Indian Housing Program of the Cherokee Nation. The Housing Authority of the Cherokee Nation denies the allegations and defends their selection process for developers. The Department of Housing and Urban Development also responds to complaints and states that there is no jurisdictional remedy for the complainant's discrimination claims. Congressman Ted Risenhoover's allegations are refuted and the Housing Authority welcomes inspection of their program."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_30_14_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Cherokee,%201973%20Jan.%20-%201978%20Aug.,%201973-1978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_30_14_0002_thumbnail.jpg "Correspondence Regarding Allegations Against Cherokee Nation Housing Authority")
![["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")
![["Urban Indians living in cities face challenges with housing, job opportunities, and access to health care. Many struggle with overcrowded and inadequate housing, high unemployment rates, and limited health services. Despite these challenges, the migration to urban areas has led to higher education levels among urban Indians. However, there are concerns about the impact of city life on Indian culture and the increasing cultural breakdown due to intermarriage with non-Indians."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_32_20_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Housing,%201973%20Mar.%20-%201978%20Oct.,%201973-1978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_32_20_0004_thumbnail.jpg "Struggles of Urban Native Americans: Facing Housing, Job, and Cultural Challenges in the City")
