Fair Housing Initiative Program - Education and Outreach Initiative
Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development
HUD is making available through this NOFA $ 7,450,000for Fair Housing Initiatives Program Education and Outreach Initiative. Additional funds may become available for award under this NOFA as a result of HUD's efforts to recapture unused funds, use carryover funds, or because of the availability of additional appropriated funds. Use of these funds will be subject to statutory constraints. All awards are subject to the applicable funding restrictions described in this NOFA.
FHIP funds are used to increase compliance with the Fair Housing Act. This year, funding is available under three Initiatives:...
Private Enforcement (PEI), Fair Housing Organization (FHOI) and Education and Outreach (EOI) Initiatives. Multi-year awards beyond FY2018 funding are subject to appropriations and the availability of funds. For FY2018, funding for each initiative is listed under a separate NOFA, therefore, applicants must apply under the correct NOFA to be considered for funding. Additionally, if an applicant is eligible and applies for funding under separate initiatives and/or components, the applicant must submit a separate application under the correct NOFA for each component the applicant applies. This NOFA will consider applicants applying under EOI only.
The following is a general description of the Education and Outreach Initiative (see chart in section III. A. for all eligibility requirements and a listing of related components):
Education and Outreach Initiative (EOI). This Initiative provides funding to organizations that inform the general public about their rights and obligations under the Fair Housing Act. EOI applicants may be funded under the following components based on eligibility:
Education and Outreach Initiative (EOI) - $7,450,000
National-Based Programs - National Media Campaign Component (EOI-NMCC) - $1,000,000
Regional/Local/Community Based Program - General Component (EOI-G) - $6,200,000
Regional/Local/Community Based Program – Tester Training Component (EOI-TTC) - $250,000
Under the EOI NOFA, applicants may apply for funding under each FHIP NOFA and for multiple components as long as the applicant applies under the correct NOFA, and meets the specific eligibility requirements and funding restrictions for each component (see eligibility chart in Section III.A.1). Applicants will be funded in accordance with the funding restrictions listed under Section IV.F.5.
