Founded in 1995 as an organization devoted to housing the homeless and elderly American Indian population, Red Feather now takes a more holistic approach to its home construction activities. Beginning in 1998, Red Feather implemented the American Indian Sustainable Housing Initiative to incorporate sustainable construction methods with hands-on training for tribal members. Red Feather identifies interested tribal trades people who want to learn straw bale construction themselves as one solution to the dire need for affordable housing. Today, their approach includes strategic planning with tribal housing authorities, financial literacy training, sustainable construction methods training, design assistance, pre-and post-construction homebuyer education, and straw bale home construction.
