The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is offering this grant through its Fair Housing Initiative Programs. This grant is designed to support private, tax-exempt fair housing enforcement organizations (FHOs and QFHOs) in their critical work. Its primary purpose is to assist these entities in the investigation and enforcement of alleged violations of the Fair Housing Act. Eligible organizations should possess experience in areas such as complaint intake, investigation, and fair housing testing. The initiative also specifically targets organizations with the capacity to combat abusive mortgage practices through its Lending Discrimination Component, in addition to providing multi-year support. This funding aims to strengthen private sector efforts to ensure fair housing for all.
