Fair Housing Initiative Program - Fair Housing Organizations Initiative: The Fair Housing Initiatives Program (FHIP) funds non-profits and other fair housing organizations and currently provides funding to eligible organizations through competitive grants under several Initiatives to carry out education and outreach and enforcement activities to prevent or eliminate discriminatory housing practices and to inform individuals of their rights and responsibilities under the Fair Housing Act (FHA). The Initiatives are the Fair Housing Organizations Initiative (FHOI), the Private Enforcement Initiative (PEI) and the Education and Outreach Initiative (EOI). In addition, consistent with FY2023 HUD appropriations directives, FHEO is publishing a separate NOFO for EOI Test Coordinator Training.This FHOI NOFO makes available $1,820,000 under the Continued Development Component (CDC) and $1,880,000 under the Establishing New Organizations Component (ENOC). The CDC provides funds to eligible non-profit fair housing organizations to build their capacity and effectiveness to conduct enforcement related activities eligible for funding such as but not limited to: investigating discrimination allegations based on sexual orientation and gender identity, source of income and religious bias, or expanding testing experience in mortgage lending discrimination or appraisal bias.The ENOC provides funds to Qualified Fair Housing Enforcement Organizations (QFHOs) (“sponsoring organizations”) to establish new, separate organizations (“sponsored organizations”) to engage in fair housing work, particularly in areas of the country which are currently unserved or underserved by fair housing enforcement organizations. Eligible activities under the ENOC are those that establish a single organization to become a viable regional/local fair housing enforcement organization that will conduct testing and other fair housing enforcement-related activities. This NOFO will receive applications for the FHOI NOFO only. Please see the FY2023 PEI and EOI NOFOs for additional FHIP funding opportunities.

- Additional Information on Eligibility
- Eligible applicants under the Continued Development Component (CDC) are Qualified Fair Housing Enforcement Organizations (QFHOs), Fair Housing Enforcement Organizations (FHOs), and other private nonprofit organizations seeking to build their capacity to conduct fair housing enforcement activities. All applicants are required to complete Appendix B, FHOI Eligibility Certification, and submit it as a part of their application. Eligible applicants for the Establishing New Organizations Component (ENOC) are QFHOs that are sponsoring the creation of a new organization to conduct fair housing enforcement activities in areas of the country which are currently unserved or underserved. As a threshold requirement for FHOI-ENOC, the ENOC-sponsored organization is not eligible for additional funding under PEI until it becomes a QFHO or FHO. However, the ENOC sponsored organization is eligible to apply for additional EOI or FHOI-CDC funding. FHOI-ENOC Sponsoring Organization Certification. Under the FHOI-ENOC competition, the sponsoring QFHO must submit the application and certify (Appendix B, Sections 1 and 2) that the proposed new organization has the ability to become a FHO by the end of the grant period of performance. The Sponsoring Organization's Statement of Work (SOW) should reflect enforcement related activities for the sponsored organization by year two of the grant. Total funding is awarded to the sponsoring organization, which is responsible for distributing funding to the sponsored organization. The HUD GTR will conduct a monitoring review of the sponsored and sponsoring organizations to ensure all financial and management systems are adequate. If HUD makes the determination that financial and management systems of one or both of the organizations are inadequate, HUD may provide technical assistance or terminate the grant. The sponsoring organization will receive administrative funds not to exceed 25% of the grant funding per year to sponsor the new organization. The sponsoring organization may only expend up to that amount for its administrative purposes outlined in the Statement of Work. All other funds must be used for the purpose of establishing the new organization. Individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorship organizations are not eligible to compete for, or receive, awards made under this announcement.
