Standing Rock Sioux Tribe recognized for housing


The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe was recognized by the Fannie Mae mortgage company for creating more housing on the reservation through low-income housing tax credit programs.

The tribe has used the program to build and rehabilitate 192 homes. Sitting Bull College was the first tribal college in the nation to use the program for student housing.

Investing in housing has created jobs, chairman Charlie Murphy said.
