Fair Housing Initiatives Program

EXAMPLES OF FUNDED PROJECTS
		The types of projects funded included activities for discovering and providing remedies for fair housing discrimination; conducting investigations of housing discrimination, including systemic discrimination; conducting testing or other investigative support for administrative and judicial enforcement of fair housing laws; and linking fair housing organizations regionally in enforcement activities. Additional projects funded included activities for establishing new fair housing enforcement organizations; discovering and providing remedies for fair housing discrimination; conducting investigations of housing discrimination; and building the capacity of existing organizations to provide fair housing enforcement. Other projects included activities providing fair housing information to the public through public service announcements, advertisements, posters and brochures; providing fair housing counseling services; and developing fair housing training for educational institutions and members of the housing industry on fair housing rights and responsibilities.

PROGRAM ACCOMPLISHMENTS
		FHIP funds are used to increase compliance with the Fair Housing Act and with substantially equivalent fair housing laws. HUD has awarded grants to affirmatively further fair housing in the amounts indicated above. Grants were competitively awarded to emphasize enforcement and education and outreach activities based on the protected bases including race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status and national origin. For FY 2004 approximately 106 grants were awarded to 42 States including the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico and over 93 cities. Enforcement related grants were given to assist private, tax exempt fair housing enforcement organizations in the investigation and enforcement of alleged violations of the Act and substantially equivalent State and local fair housing laws. Education and outreach grants were given to assist projects that inform the public about their rights and obligations under the Act and substantially equivalent State and local fair housing laws.
