ATTENTION HOUSING TENANTS

The mission of the Grand Traverse Band Housing Department is to provide and promote safe, adequate and affordable housing opportunities for GTB Tribal Members. As the facilitator of housing for the tribal communities, the Housing Department is responsible for creating a healthy living environment for families through responsive initiatives that address social and economic concerns via a solution-oriented education based housing program. The Grand Traverse Band places a priority on homeownership as a means to stabilize communities by promoting self-sufficiency. While housing families is the primary mission of the Housing Department, the focus is on creating housing opportunities by assisting families to obtain the required knowledge necessary to make informed life decisions. In the absence of eligible GTB Tribal Members, the GTB Housing Department will provide these opportunities to other Federally Recognized Indian Families that live within the Grand Traverse Band six-county service area.
