[Docket No. N-94-3755; FR-3622-N-06]
Announcement of Funding Awards for Fair Housing Initiatives
Program--Fiscal Year 1994
AGENCY: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Fair Housing and Equal
Opportunity, 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 FY 1994 funding awards made under the Fair
Housing Initiatives Program (FHIP). 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 strengthen the Department's enforcement of the
Fair Housing Act and to further fair housing.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jacquelyn J. Shelton, Director, Office
of Fair Housing Initiatives and Voluntary Programs, Room 5234, 451
Seventh Street, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20410-2000. Telephone number
(202) 708-0800. A telecommunications device (TDD) for hearing and
speech impaired persons is available at (202) 708-3216. (These are not
toll-free numbers.)
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, the Education and Outreach Initiative, the
Private Enforcement Initiative, and the Fair Housing Organizations
Initiative.
In the FY 1994 FHIP NOFA published on May 16, 1994 (59 FR 25532),
the Department announced the availability of up to $18,481,000 in funds
for FHIP. This amount was adjusted to $17,481,000 by a notice published
on August 9, 1994 (59 FR 40599), which replaced $1 million of FY 1993
Education and Outreach Initiative funds made available under the FY
1993 FHIP Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Reinvention Lab Project
NOFA published on June 16, 1994 (59 FR 31072) with $1 million in FY
1994 Education and Outreach Initiative funds.
The Department reviewed, evaluated and scored the applications
received based on the criteria in the FY 1994 FHIP NOFA. As a result,
HUD has funded the applications announced below, and 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 concerning the recipients of funding
awards, as follows below.
