Snoqualmie Tribal Housing Assistance Program

The Tribal Council is pleased to introduce a new tax-free housing program for Snoqualmie Tribal Members under the General Welfare Plan. The Tribal Council has been working diligently to create a new Tribal Services Housing Assistance Program since the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) guidelines were released regarding Tribal General Welfare Plans in October of 2015. The Tribal Council strives to support Tribal families with this new Tribal Services Housing Assistance Program, which affirms the Tribe’s inherent sovereign right to promote the general welfare of the Tribal Membership. Through this program, the Tribal Council aims to ensure that no Snoqualmie Tribal Member is without basic fundamental necessities of life. The new program provides $1,000 (one thousand dollars) per month for housing assistance to adult (18 years and older) Enrolled Snoqualmie Tribal Members to be used towards housing and utilities. While the new Housing Assistance Program will not completely fund all of the housing needs of Snoqualmie Tribal Members, the program is designed to lessen the burden of living expenses in your everyday lives. Extensive due diligence was very important in the process of creating this program; the Tribal Council has ensured that the Tribe can financially support this new housing program, while moving forward with the new gas station/convenience store and the casino expansion. The Housing Assistance Program is a service we proudly offer on behalf of the Snoqualmie Indian Tribe’s inherent sovereign right to promote the general welfare of our members.
