Description
Native Americans living on Native American lands experience some of the highest poverty rates and worst housing conditions in our nation. Many of these problems originate from historical patterns of exploitation and complex land ownership arrangements, combined with a lack of investment in Native American communities. These systemic problems have been further exacerbated by decades of neglect and continued disinvestment, producing a cycle of poverty that is extremely hard to break.
