Opportunity Information: Apply for FR 6200 N 21 C
The Fair Housing Initiatives Program (FHIP) - Private Enforcement Initiative (PEI) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) designed to strengthen compliance with the Fair Housing Act by supporting real-world investigation and enforcement work. Through this Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA), HUD funds qualified private, nonprofit fair housing enforcement organizations so they can identify discriminatory housing practices, investigate allegations, and pursue enforcement actions that help protect people from illegal discrimination in housing-related transactions.
For this PEI NOFA (Funding Opportunity Number FR 6200 N 21 C; CFDA 14.418), HUD announced a total of 30,750,000 in available funding under the PEI multi-year funding structure. Most of that total, about 24,619,663, is effectively committed as a set-aside tied to prior appropriations and intended for FY 2016 and FY 2017 multi-year grantees that are already in the pipeline. The remaining 6,130,337 is intended to support new FY 2018 grantees. HUD also notes that additional money could become available later through recaptured unused funds, carryover amounts, or additional appropriations, but any such increases would still be constrained by statute and by the specific restrictions laid out in the NOFA. Future-year funding beyond FY 2018 is not guaranteed and depends on congressional appropriations.
This NOFA is specifically limited to the Private Enforcement Initiative. While FHIP as a whole includes three initiatives (PEI, Fair Housing Organization Initiative (FHOI), and Education and Outreach Initiative (EOI)), HUD separated them for FY 2018 and requires applicants to apply under the correct NOFA for the initiative they want. If an organization is eligible for multiple initiatives or components, it must submit separate applications under each relevant NOFA and component, rather than trying to cover everything in one submission.
The focus of PEI is enforcement capacity: funded organizations are expected to conduct fair housing testing and investigations, develop evidence of potential Fair Housing Act violations, and take appropriate enforcement steps consistent with program rules and statutory requirements. In practical terms, this typically supports activities that move beyond general education into case development and enforcement-oriented work, helping ensure that discriminatory practices are identified and challenged in a structured, credible way by organizations with demonstrated fair housing enforcement competence.
Key administrative details include that the opportunity is offered as a grant, falls under the housing activity category, and was posted with a creation date of October 29, 2018. Applications were due December 19, 2018, with electronic submissions required by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the deadline date. HUD anticipated making around 20 awards, and the listed award ceiling is 300,000 per award. Eligibility is described broadly as "Others" with clarification provided in the NOFA, but the narrative makes clear that the intended applicants are private, nonprofit fair housing enforcement organizations that meet statutory and program eligibility requirements outlined elsewhere in the solicitation (including a referenced eligibility chart in Section III.A.).
Overall, the opportunity is aimed at resourcing nonprofit enforcement organizations to do hands-on fair housing enforcement work, with a major portion of the total amount structured to continue multi-year commitments and a smaller portion reserved to bring in new grantees for FY 2018, all within the broader HUD goal of increasing compliance with the Fair Housing Act.Apply for FR 6200 N 21 C
