Acceptance and inspection of deliverables fall to the recipient, who must ensure compliance with procurement and accountability standards under federal award regulations. Promotion and visibility of U.S. Government funding must adhere to State Department branding guidelines under 2 CFR Part 200 and 10 FAM 416.

Fair Housing Initiatives Program - Education and Outreach Initiative
Solicitation # OFH-2600-DC-021A
The Fair Housing Initiatives Program – Education and Outreach Initiative, administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, aims to prevent and eliminate discriminatory housing practices by funding eligible organizations to conduct public education and outreach efforts. The initiative operates through two main components: the National Media Campaign, which focuses on centralized, nationwide media products and includes targeted efforts to boost participation in Annual Fair Housing Month, and the General Component, which supports localized, community-based programs across the country. Both components require strict oversight by HUD, which retains approval authority over all deliverables, work plans, and statements of work, and actively participates in their development and implementation. Funding is distributed through competitive grants and cooperative agreements, with the majority awarded as grants to regional and local entities. National-level efforts, however, are administered under cooperative agreements managed by HUD Headquarters due to their broader impact and the need for heightened federal oversight and departmental review. HUD conducts regular monitoring, requests quarterly progress reports, and maintains control over the content and delivery of all educational materials. The program is forecasted to be available for applications starting June 18, 2026, with inquiries directed to Katherine Vasilopoulos at the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
