provide funding to state and local
governments or their agencies, public or
private non-profit organizations or other
public or private entities formulating or
carrying out programs to prevent or
eliminate discriminatory housing
practices. This enables the recipients to
carry out activities designed to obtain
enforcement of the rights granted by the
federal Fair Housing Act or by
substantially equivalent state or local
fair housing laws. This also enables the
recipients to carry out education and
outreach activities designed to inform
the public of their rights and obligations
under such federal, state or local laws
prohibiting discrimination. By

to the Assistant Secretary for FHEO the
authority to administer the Fair Housing
Initiatives Program (24 CFR 125.104(a)).
By previous redelegation, the Assistant
Secretary for FHEO redelegated certain
authority under the FHIP (68 FR 45843).
Since that time, the FHEO Hub
Directors’ title has been changed to
FHEO Region Directors. Through this
notice, the Assistant Secretary for FHEO
revokes all previous redelegations under
FHIP within the Office of Fair Housing
and Equal Opportunity, and retains and,
with noted exception, redelegates
authority to certain FHEO headquarters
and region staff.
Accordingly, the Assistant Secretary
for FHEO and the General Deputy
Assistant Secretary for FHEO redelegate
authority as follows:
