Mission

The Puyallup Tribal Housing Authority’s (PTHA) mission is to provide assistance and opportunities for eligible and qualified Native Americans within the Puyallup Tribe’s service area to obtain decent, safe, sanitary and affordable housing.

Purpose

PTHA has been established to provide decent, safe and sanitary housing for low-income Tribal members and other Indians; to remedy unsafe and unsanitary housing conditions that are injurious to the public health, safety and morals; to alleviate the acute shortage of decent, safe and sanitary dwellings for persons of low income; to provide employment opportunities through the construction, reconstruction, improvement, extension, alteration or repair and operation of eligible dwellings; and to manage and maintain residential properties that are owned by the Tribe and/or the Authority for the purpose of providing housing to Tribal members and the Indian community.

Programs

PTHA offers assistance to eligible low-income participants with Rental Assistance (Section 8), Low Rent (NE Apts), Home-Ownership Opportunity (lease to own), and Elders’ Repair and Renovations. In 2007, PTHA broke ground on the Elders Healthy Home prototype. Walk through will take place in early spring.

Goals

  • 22 townhouses on East Grandview
  • Elders Housing on Waller Road
  • Creation of three new Tribally funded Programs:
    • Down Payment Program
    • Mortgage Assistance Elders
    • Tribal Voucher Program
