ACTION: Notice of Technical Correction to the Notice of Funding
Availability (NOFA) for HUD's Fiscal Year (FY) 2010 Fair Housing
Initiatives Program (FHIP) Enforcement Testing Technical Assistance
(TA) Program.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On April 14, 2011, HUD posted the Notice of Funding
Availability (NOFA) for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2010 Fair Housing
Initiatives Program (FHIP) Enforcement Testing Technical Assistance
(TA) Program to Grants.gov. The NOFA announced the availability of
information on applicant eligibility, submission deadlines, funding
criteria, and other program and application requirements.
The purpose of the program is to provide technical assistance to
one or more entities to develop a course on Fair Housing Testing, and
to conduct technical assistance to promote a greater and more
consistent use of Testing Methodologies among FHIP organizations.
Testing represents the most effective investigative tool in uncovering
and corroborating claims of unlawful discrimination. Improving the
quality and consistency of testing used by FHIP organizations will
increase the persuasiveness and acceptance of tests in litigation. This
is designed to provide FHIP organizations with the necessary tools to
conduct, understand, and analyze testing with the stated goal of
contributing to the Department's enforcement efforts.
The notice providing information regarding the application process,
funding criteria and eligibility requirements, application and
instructions can be found using the Department of Housing and Urban
Development agency link on the Grants.gov/Find Web site at http://www.grants.gov/search/agency.do. A link to the funding opportunity is
