Project Description
The Fond du Lac Housing and Community Needs Assessment is being directed by the Fond du Lac Planning Division to collect actionable data that the Band can use to plan for future housing and community development projects. The project, which is funded by the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Office of Native American Programs, will foster collaboration and communication between a range of Tribal programs and divisions.
The Needs Assessment consists of a statistically-representative sample of households on the Fond du Lac Reservation, a survey of off-reservation households, and in-depth discussions with selected community members through interviews and focus groups
