Announcement of Funding Awards for the Family Investment Centers 
Program--Fiscal Year 1994

AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian 
Housing, HUD.

ACTION: Announcement of funding awards.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with section 102(a)(4)(C) of the Department of 
Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989, this document 
notifies the public of funding awards for Fiscal Year 1994 Public and 
Indian Housing Authority applicants under the Family Investment Centers 
(FIC) Program. The purpose of this document is to announce the names 
and addresses of the award winners and the amount of the awards to be 
used to further the Department's commitment to provide families living 
in public and Indian housing with better access to employment and 
training opportunities to achieve self-sufficiency and independence, 
and to rescind scores announced in an amendment published July 29, 1994 
(59 FR 38617) regarding the score achievable under the ranking factor 
that addressed the evidence of need for supportive services by eligible 
residents.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Marcia Y. Martin, Office of Community 
Relations and Involvement (OCRI), or Dom Nessi, Director, Office of 
Native American Programs (ONAP), Department of Housing and Urban 
Development, 451 Seventh Street, S.W., Washington, DC 20410; telephone 
numbers: OCRI (202) 708-4214; and ONAP (202) 755-0032 (these are not 
toll-free numbers). Hearing- or speech-impaired persons may use the 
Telecommunications Devises for the Deaf (TDD) by contacting the Federal 
Information Relay Services on 1-800-877-TDDY (1-800-877-8339) or 202-
708-9300 (not a toll-free number).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Section 22 of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 
1437t) provides for the establishment of Family Investment Centers. The 
stated purpose of Section 22 is to provide families living in public 
housing with better access to educational and employment opportunities 
to achieve self-sufficiency and independence by: (a) Developing 
facilities in or near public housing for training and supportive 
services; (b) mobilizing public and private resources to expand and 
improve the delivery of such services; (c) providing funding for such 
essential training and support services that cannot otherwise be 
funded; and (d) improving the capacity of management to access the 
training and service needs of families, coordinate the provision of 
training and services that meet such needs, and ensure the long-term 
provision of such training and services.
    Although section 22 is phrased in terms of families living in 
public housing, the program is also available to Indian Housing 
Authorities (IHAs), because of section 527 of the National Affordable 
Housing Act (104 Stat. 4216: 42 U.S.C. 1437aa note) (NAHA). Section 527 
extends the applicability of many NAHA provisions affecting Title I of 
the 1937 Act (including section 515, which added Section 220 to housing 
operated by an IHA. [[Page 6726]] 
    Applicants under FIC receive funding to conduct: Supportive 
Services (Only), Renovation/Conversion/New Construction (Only), and 
Combination Supportive Services/Renovation/Conversion/Construction 
Activities.
    On February 28, 1994 (59 FR 9592), HUD published a Notice of 
Funding Availability (NOFA) that announced $75 million in FIC funds, 
and stated the Department's intention to use $1 million of FIC funds to 
undertake a Neighborhood Demonstration Program. The Notice of 
Demonstration was announced in the Federal Register on July 21, 1994 
(59 FR 37338). The NOFA was amended four times as follows:
     April 19, 1994 (59 FR 18570). Extended the eligible 
activities to include new construction and acquisition; and extended 
the application submission deadline to Friday, July 22, 1994. In 
addition, the Department announced it's intention to use $5 million of 
FIC funds for a Youth Development Initiative to address the problems of 
violence in low-income communities. The Demonstration was announced in 
the Federal Register on May 13, 1994 (59 FR 25262).
     June 9, 1994 (59 FR 29816). Revised the NOFA to include 
language regarding the Comprehensive Improvement Assistance Program 
(CIAP). In addition, the Department announced the award of $2 million 
to the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA) on an emergency basis for FIC 
eligible purposes.
     July 14, 1994 (59 FR 35945). Announced new application 
submission requirements for applicants applying to undertake 
renovation/conversion/new construction activities (only). This 
amendment was issued subsequent to the Notice of Demonstration 
published June 21, 1994. In addition, the amendment determined that 
section 957 of the National Affordable Housing Act (NAHA) was subject 
to appropriations and not applicable at this time.
     Published July 29, 1994 (59 FR 38617). Announced the 
change of the explanation of the award of funds and increased the 
number of points available in the ranking factor that addresses the 
need for services by eligible residents under the categories for 
renovation/conversion/supportive services and supportive services 
(only) from ``10'' points to ``30'' points. In addition, maximum points 
achievable under Renovation/Conversion/Supportive Services activities 
were changed from ``135'' to ``155''. Maximum points achievable for 
Supportive Services (Only) were changed from ``140'' to ``160.''
    Accordingly, this announcement further amends the NOFA for Public 
and Indian Family Investment Centers as published on February 28, 1994 
(59 FR 9592), and specifically the Amendment published on July 29, 1994 
(59 FR 38617), which increased the points achievable in the ranking 
factor that addressed the need for services by eligible residents. The 
Department announces that applications were reviewed and evaluated in 
accordance with the ranking factors set forth in the original NOFA 
published February 28, 1994, and did not include the increased number 
of points specified in the July 29, 1994 amendment. Applications were 
selected in accordance with ranking guidance set forth in the July 29, 
1994 NOFA amendment that allowed that grants may be awarded out of rank 
order based on project size and geographical diversity. The final 
ranking list was compiled from lists that included the four top 
applications (per funding category) per HUD Region; the top 
applications in states not represented in the former category; and a 
mix of small, medium and large housing authorities nationwide.
    In accordance with section 102(a)(4)(C) of the Department of 
Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 (Pub. L. 101-235, 
approved December 15, 1989), the Department is publishing details 
regarding the recipients of funding awards. This information is 
provided in Appendix A to this document.

    Dated: January 30, 1995.
Joseph Shuldiner,
Assistant Secretary for Public and Indian Housing.
