Cherokee Nation recently celebrated an important milestone with the opening of seven new apartments on North Harvard Avenue — the first affordable rental homes our tribe has developed in North Tulsa, a community with deep Cherokee roots and nearly 10,000 Cherokee citizens.

The Cherokee Nation officially celebrated the opening of the Harvard Apartments on Wednesday, the first housing investment by the tribe in North Tulsa.

Under the Hoskin-Warner administration, we've made historic investments to strengthen and protect the places where our people gather. Now, we're taking another important step to make sure those gathering spaces are not just welcoming but also safe and secure.

Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. recently signed the Victim Protection Act into law after the Council of the Cherokee Nation unanimously passed the act during its October meeting.
