Opportunity Information: Apply for FR 5600 N 08B
The Fair Housing Initiatives Program (FHOI) offers funding to qualified Fair Housing Organizations (QFHOs), Fair Housing Organizations (FHOs), and nonprofits focused on enhancing their capacity to enforce fair housing laws. The initiative aims to support activities in underserved areas, including rural regions and communities with new immigrants, particularly those who may not speak English fluently.
The FHOI has three main components:
1. **Establishing New Organizations Component (ENOC)**: This component provides resources for a qualified sponsoring organization to help establish a new fair housing enforcement organization in underserved areas. The sponsoring organization applies for the funding and must ensure that the new entity can operate effectively as a fair housing organization. The funding period is 12 to 18 months, and performance criteria determine funding distribution. If the new organization's performance is poor, the sponsoring organization must notify HUD and may suspend funding.
2. **Lending Discrimination Component (LDC)**: This aspect aids organizations assisting victims of lending fraud and abuse, enabling them to expand their capabilities in providing fair lending assistance and initiating actions under the Fair Housing Act.
3. **Continued Development General Component**: This component supports QFHOs, FHOs, and other nonprofits in enhancing their fair housing efforts in areas with significant mortgage scam activities. It also enables these organizations to establish satellite offices in additional jurisdictions to broaden their reach.
Overall, the FHOI is designed to improve fair housing enforcement and lending practices, ultimately fostering greater equity in housing access.Apply for FR 5600 N 08B
