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 announcement notifies the public of funding decisions made by the Department under the Notices of Funding Availability (NOFAs) for the Fair Housing Initiatives Program (FHIP) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2016. This announcement contains the names and addresses of those award recipients selected for funding based on the rating and ranking of all applications and the amount of the awards. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Myron Newry, Director, FHIP Division, Office of Programs, Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street, SW., Room 5230, Washington, DC 20410. Telephone number (202) 402-7095 (this is not a toll-free number). Persons with hearing or speech impairments may access this number through TTY by calling the toll-free Federal Relay Service at 800-877-8339. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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 [[Page 89966]] 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. On May 4, 2016, the Department posted three FY 2016 NOFAs, which announced the availability of approximately $38,300,000 to be utilized for FHIP projects and activities. Funding availability for discretionary grants for the FHIP NOFAs included: The Private Enforcement Initiative (PEI) ($30,350,000), the Education and Outreach Initiative (EOI) ($7,450,000), and the Fair Housing Organizations Initiative (FHOI) ($500,000). This Notice thereby announces grant awards for the FY 2016 PEI, EOI and FHOI FHIP NOFAs. For the FY 2016, the Department reviewed, evaluated and scored the applications received based on the criteria in the FY 2016 NOFAs. 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 are 14.416, 14.417 and 14.418. Dated: November 23, 2016.
