SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, 
as amended, 42 U.S.C. 3601-19 (the Fair Housing Act) charges the 
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development with responsibility to 
accept and investigate complaints alleging discrimination based on 
race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status or national 
origin in the sale, rental, or financing of most housing. In addition, 
the Fair Housing Act directs the Secretary to coordinate with State and 
local agencies administering fair housing laws and to cooperate with 
and render technical assistance to public or private entities carrying 
out programs to prevent and eliminate discriminatory housing practices.
    Section 561 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1987, 
42 U.S.C. 3616, established FHIP to strengthen the Department's 
enforcement of the Fair Housing Act and to further fair housing. This 
program assists projects and activities designed to enhance compliance 
with the Fair Housing Act and substantially equivalent State and local 
fair housing laws. Implementing regulations are found at 24 CFR part 
125.
    The Department announced in the Federal Register on March 26, 2002 
(67 FR 13826 and 67 FR 14003), the availability of approximately 
$20,250,000, and any potential recapture, to be utilized for the Fair 
Housing Initiatives Program for projects and activities through the 
Private Enforcement Initiative (PEI), the Education and Outreach 
Initiative (EOI), and the Fair Housing Organizations Initiative (FHOI). 
This Notice announces the award of approximately $18,249,887.87 of FY 
2002 funds in grants to 97 organizations and $1,994,458.00 in 4 
contracts to 2 organizations.
    The Department reviewed, evaluated and scored the applications 
received based on the criteria in the FY 2002 SuperNOFA. As a result, 
HUD has funded the applications announced in Appendix A, and in 
accordance with section 102(a)(4)(C) of the Department of Housing and 
Urban Development Reform Act of 1989 (103 Stat. 1987, 42 U.S.C. 3545), 
the Department is hereby publishing details concerning the recipients
