FY 1998 SuperNOFA Guidebook

Fair Housing Assistance Program (FHAP)

FHAP is designed to build a coordinated, intergovernmental enforcement effort to further fair housing. It provides funding to State and local fair housing enforcement agencies to encourage them to assume a greater share of the responsibility for the administration and enforcement of their fair housing laws and ordinances. FHAP funding is provided through a formula and can be used to cover the costs of processing dual-filed complaints, training under the Fair Housing Act and the agencies' fair housing laws, technical assistance, and the development and enhancement of other fair housing enforcement projects. For FY98, $15 million is available from FHAP.
