The mission of the Akwesasne Housing Authority and the St. Regis Mohawk Tribe is to develop a comprehensive housing program that will address the needs of all Mohawks living on and around our designated Indian area.  We will seek to generate and promote community strength and prosperity through safe housing, supportive ventures, economic development, and program efficiency.  In the spirit of this mission, we will strive to protect and educate our future generations.

The AHA Board of Commissioners provides direction and support to the Authority by overseeing legal, financial, and operational matters. 

The Board may:

• Enter into agreements, contracts and understandings;
• Lease, rent, sell, or enter into lease-purchase agreements;
• Establish and revise rents or monthly payments;
• Make rules and regulations concerning the selection of tenants or Homebuyers;
• Undertake and carry out studies and analyses of housing needs;

The Board holds regular monthly meetings.  Special meetings are held as needed.  The Board is currently seeking a new member.  Persons interested in serving on the Board of Commissioners may forward a letter of interest to Tribal Council.
