![["The document is from the Board of Commissioners of the Kiowa Housing Authority to the Secretary of the Department of Housing & Urban Development, expressing concern about the dire need for assistance in correcting construction deficiencies in the housing project. They feel that their plea for assistance has been ignored, possibly due to a statement made by the Chairman regarding the safety of the housing. They request immediate attention to the matter and invite the Secretary to visit Anadarko to see the conditions firsthand."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_003_2_33_5_0030.jpg "Urgent Plea for Assistance: Kiowa Housing Authority's Dire Conditions")
![["Senator Dewey F. Bartlett has written to Secretary Patricia Harris regarding difficulties faced by the Kiowa Housing Authority in obtaining assistance from the HUD Area Office in Oklahoma City for their Mutual-Help housing project. The HUD Area Office has recommended the use of Community Development Block Grant funds to repair the homes, but the Kiowa Tribe's application did not include funds for repair work. Additionally, the KHA is facing management deficiencies due to staff resignations and lack of capable employees. The Area Office is willing to fund the repair work once the KHA has employed a capable staff."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_003_2_33_5_0025.jpg "Kiowa Tribe Housing Concerns: A Call for Action")
