[[Page 58831]]
Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, as amended, 42 U.S.C.
3601-19 (the Fair Housing Act) provides 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 published its Fair Housing Initiatives Program
(FHIP) NOFA on May 12, 2008 (73 FR 27118), announcing the availability
of approximately $22.8 million authorized by the Consolidated
Appropriations Act 2008 (Pub. L. 110-161, approved December 26, 2007),
to be utilized for FHIP projects and activities. Funding availability
for discretionary grants included: the Private Enforcement Initiative
(PEI) ($19 million), the Education and Outreach Initiative (EOI) ($2.8
million), and the Fair Housing Organizations Initiative (FHOI) ($1
million).
This Notice announces grant awards of approximately $22.8 million,
and funding for Fair Housing Accessibility First (FIRST) training.
FIRST is a major training initiative to assist architects, builders,
disability advocates and others with understanding how to design and
construct multifamily housing that complies with the Act. For the FY
2008 NOFA, the Department reviewed, evaluated and scored the
applications received based on the criteria in the NOFA. 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
of funding awards in Appendix A of this document.
The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Number for currently
funded Initiatives under the Fair Housing Initiatives Program is
14.408.
Dated: September 13, 2011.
