Federal help for water access
A new program offers low-income people help paying their water bills.
The federal Low Income Water Assistance Program has more than a billion dollars available to help keep people’s water utility from getting shut off. The money also could go toward helping individuals fix critical household water problems.
Native America Calling will learn more about the program and get ideas about how some tribes are finding ways to help citizens.
Guests on Native America Calling
Lori Walking Eagle, director of the LIHEAP and LIHWAP programs for the Rosebud Sioux Tribe
Patricia Watchman, office supervisor for the Kayenta district of the Navajo Tribal Utility Authority (NTUA)
