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 note, established the 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 FHIP has four funding categories: The Administrative Enforcement Initiative (AEI), the Education and Outreach Initiative (EOI), the Private Enforcement Initiative (PEI) and the Fair Housing Organizations Initiative (FHOI). This Notice announces awards made, primarily, under the EOI, the PEI and the FHOI.

The Department announced in the Federal Register on March 31, 1998 (63 FR 15535) the availability of $11,500,000 and on April 30, 1998 (63 FR 23969) the availability of $3,500,000. Both of these amounts came from the $15,000,000 appropriation to be utilized for the Fair Housing Initiatives Program in 1998. Under the first Super Notice of Funding Availability (SuperNOFA) for 1998, funding was made available for projects and activities designed to enforce and enhance compliance with the Fair Housing Act through the PEI, EOI, and FHOI. Under the second SuperNOFA for 1998, funding was made available for projects and activities under the National Education and Outreach Initiative. This Notice announces awards of approximately $15,000,000 to 50 organizations that submitted applications under both SuperNOFAs for FY 1998.

Additionally, the Department announced in the Federal Register on February 26, 1999 (64 FR 9677) the availability of $15,000,000 from the Fiscal Year 1999 appropriation of $23,500,000 to be utilized for three Initiatives (PEI, EOI, and FHOI) under the FHIP. The remaining $8,500,000 was made available for separate Requests for Proposals. This Notice was amended on April 27, 1999 (64 FR 22634) to extend the application due date from April 27, 1999 to June 30, 1999, and to make certain modifications. A second amendment was issued on June 30, 1999 (64 FR 35175) to advise of certain additional modifications in the FHIP NOFA. This Notice announces awards to 62 organizations for Fiscal Year 1999, including the National Housing Discrimination Audit that was awarded to the Urban Institute for approximately $7,360,000.

Finally, the Department announced in the Federal Register on February 24, 2000 (65 FR 9485), the availability of $18,000,000 of the Fiscal Year 2000 appropriation of $24 million, to be utilized for the Fair Housing Initiatives Program with $6 million designated to the National Housing Discrimination Audit. This Notice announces awards to 65 organizations that submitted applications under the FY 2000 SuperNOFA for FHIP, including the award to the Urban Institute of the $6,000,000 for the National Housing Discrimination Audit. Also, the FY 2000 application of the Leadership Conference Education Fund was awarded funding of $1,000,000 out of FY 1999 funds. No applications were submitted under the Model Codes Partnership Component for FY 2000.

The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Numbers for the Fair Housing Initiatives Program are 14.408, 14.409, 14.410 and 14.413.

The Department reviewed, evaluated and scored the applications received based on the criteria in the fiscal years 1998, 1999, and 2000 SuperNOFAs. As a result, HUD has funded the applications announced in Appendices A, B, and C, 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 Appendices A, B, and C of this document.
