Opportunity Summary:
The Fair Housing Organization Initiative (FHOI) Continuing Development Component is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Fair Housing Initiatives Program (FHIP). Its purpose is to help fair housing organizations remain operational and strengthen their capacity to enforce the Fair Housing Act's protections against housing discrimination. In practical terms, the program is meant to support organizations that investigate, document, and address discriminatory housing practices, and that need resources to sustain or expand their enforcement-related work.
This opportunity was offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning HUD expected a more hands-on relationship than a typical grant, with some level of ongoing federal involvement or collaboration during the funded work. The funding activity category is housing, and the related CFDA number is 14.417 (Fair Housing Organization Initiatives). For FY2013, HUD anticipated making about four awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,200,000. Individual awards could be as large as $325,000. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of receiving an award.
Eligibility was focused on organizations already involved in fair housing enforcement or those developing that capacity. Eligible applicants included Qualified Fair Housing Enforcement Organizations (QFHOs), Fair Housing Enforcement Organizations (FHOs), and nonprofit groups that are organizing specifically to build their ability to deliver fair housing enforcement services. The listing notes that eligibility details were further clarified in an "Additional Information on Eligibility" section in the full announcement, which applicants would need to review to confirm they meet HUD's definitions and requirements.
The announcement was posted and created on March 20, 2013, with an application deadline of April 22, 2013. The opportunity was archived on April 30, 2013. Applicants were directed to download application materials and instructions using the CFDA number only, indicating that HUD's distribution method at the time relied on that identifier for accessing the correct documents. For support, HUD provided points of contact within the Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity's FHIP Division: Myron P. Newry and Paula Stone, reachable at (202) 402-7095 and (202) 402-7054. A toll-free number, (800) 290-1617, was also provided for persons with hearing or speech impairments.
Overall, the Continuing Development Component of FHOI was structured to stabilize and strengthen the nonprofit fair housing enforcement field by providing targeted operational and capacity-building support, so organizations could continue enforcing fair housing laws and addressing discrimination complaints effectively.
