EOI – Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Component
This NOFO includes funding for fair housing organizations to create and/or update existing materials to reflect the clarification that, after the U.S. Supreme Court’s Bostock decision (Bostock v. Clayton Cty., 140 S. Ct. 1731 (2020), the Fair Housing Act bars discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.  

EOI General – Striving for Housing Equity Component
This component will fund local and community-based projects to address barriers that may arise when people protected under the Fair Housing Act exercise their fair housing rights to expand housing choice and projects that promote equity and justice in housing, consistent with the mission of the FHA. These barriers include but are not limited to opposition to the creation of affordable housing, neighbor harassment based on protected characteristics, and obstructing persons with disabilities who seek to enforce their fair housing rights.   

Targeted Fair Housing Component
This component provides funds for targeted fair housing education and outreach activities such as projects to: develop law school curricula related to fair housing, improve access to homeownership for underserved populations that have historically been denied such opportunities, and advance community integration.  Funding may also be used to provide fair housing services to underserved communities and underserved populations.
