| Original Source Summary | Construction of a residence in Pierce County, Washington, by the House My People Church Lakers organization. |
| Notes | The following information provided by Barry Brodniak of Northwest Housing Development. "The Church Lake building group was one of the first if not the first building group to build their own home using the mutual self-help method of home construction. Very much the very same program that NHD utilizes today...The film clip does not appear to me to be a special event. It appears to show the homes that are being built by the homeowners and the construction supervisor teaching construction tasks...Cal [Watness] was an original HMP board member. At the time, Cal was a dean at Fort Steilacoom Community College (now Pierce College). FSCC was the sponsoring organization of HMP's grant application to USDA Farmer's Home Administration (now, USDA - Rural Development)."
