Kenaitze Salamatof Housing
The Kenaitze/Salamatof TDHE provides several programs that serve the local Native community.
The Safe Home Program is designed to renovate and repair the homes of Kenaitze and Salamatof Tribal members, as well as, Alaskan Native and Native American Indian homes. The program addresses health and safety issues in the homes. Weatherization is a priority and homes are made handicap accessible, when necessary.
The Rental Assistance Program helps qualified families by assisting them with the payment of their rent. This program, in conjunction with a self-sufficiency plan that is developed by the participant and the appropriate Kenaitze Indian Tribe staff, temporarily aids families while they move toward the goals they have set.
The Buy-Down Loan Program provides assistance to eligible applicants as they purchase and finance a home in the Kenai-Soldotna area. The program is funded by a grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
The Snow Plowing/Sanding Program is available for eligible Elders and handicapped individuals. The program provides the plowing/sanding service at no charge, helping make their winter a little bit easier.
