Five tribal entities, including the Cheyenne and Arapaho Housing Authority, were recently awarded $1.6 million through the Native American Housing Initiatives (NAHI) Grants Program offered by the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLBank) Topeka. The projects will be executed in partnership with Sovereign Bank, a community bank wholly owned by the Citizen Potawatomi Nation.
