Native American Advocacy This Issue's Index Date Last Reviewed: Housing Native Youth: Shortages and Struggles The idea of home can evoke a myriad of images, emotions, and stories for all of us. Home is where we live, home is where we teach our children, home can be our solace and refuge. Unfortunately, many Native children live in sub-standard housing. The National American Indian Housing Council states that forty percent of homes in tribal areas are overcrowded and have serious physical deficiencies. In comparison, nationally only 5.9 percent of housing is considered inadequate. In 1998, HUD reported that Indian families waited for subsidized housing twice as long as families nationally, 41 months compared to 21 months. 30,000 people are on waiting lists for low-income rental units in Indian Country. Persistent unemployment and poverty contribute to housing problems in Indian Country. Many households with low salaries spend over half their income on housing.

Opening Doors A HOUSING PUBLICATION FOR THE DISABILITY COMMUNITY SEPTEMBER 2002 ISSUE 19 Rural Housing Challenges Meeting the Housing Needs of People with Disabilities in Rural Communities By Emily Cooper, Ann O'Hara, and Maura Collins Versluys Introduction The housing problems of people with disabilities living in large cities – such as New York City and Chicago – often receive national attention. However, a large proportion of people with disabilities actually live in more rural parts of the country. Currently, 23 percent of all residents of rural areas are people with disabilities compared to 18 percent in cities and larger urban areas. Individuals in these areas face many challenges due to their rural surroundings including poor quality housing, fewer accessible units, and limited transportation options. They also have many of the same housing problems as their counterparts in more metropolitan areas; even in rural areas where housing costs are typically lower, people with disabilities are still unable to afford safe and decent housing. Because of the unique housing challenges facing rural Am eric a , the federal government has created a limited number of housing resources administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).

Senator Stevens' Report to Alaskans October 31, 2001 As many of you have heard, my office in the Senate Hart Building has been closed since October 18th in response to the anthrax attacks on Washington, D.C. While my staff and I have been working out of my offices in the U.S. Capitol, we have not received mail addressed to the U.S. Senate since October 15th and have been unable to retrieve faxes addressed to the U.S. Senate since October 17th. At this time it appears likely that we will not be able to return to the Hart building prior to November 16th. Because of the new security procedures, mail that you may have sent in the period leading up to and following the anthrax exposure in the Hart building is currently quarantined and will not reach my office for a substantial period of time. Many of you have tried unsuccessfully to reach me or my staff. For urgent matters, please contact one of my offices in Alaska immediately (phone numbers at end of this report). If you have recently written to me, please re-send your letters to my Anchorage office. Those letters will be processed in Anchorage in close coordination with me and my Washington, D.C., staff. In order to help with this process two of our Washington, D.C., staff members have been assigned to work in our Anchorage office. UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE ALL MAIL TO ME SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AS FOLLOWS: Senator Ted Stevens 222 West 7th Avenue, #2
