Description
- Activities
- The use of AC funds is governed by the fhap regulations set forth at 24 C.F.R. § 115.304(c), the terms of cooperative agreements, and the uniform administrative requirements, cost principles, and audit requirements for federal awards (UAR). Agencies receiving AC funds will be required to provide HUD with a statement of how they intend to use the AC funds. Said statement will be later used to measure the specific deliverables in accordance with the purpose of the AC fund for each fhap agency via the performance assessment report. Given the fact that each fhap participating agency has different administrative needs, the AC fund does not indicate the expectation of specific measurable outputs. HUD may require that some or all AC funding be directed to activities designed to create, modify, or improve local, regional, or national information systems concerning fair housing matters (including the purchase of state-of-the-art computer systems, obtaining, and maintaining internet access, etc.).
- Expected outcomes
- All such activities must support the agency's administration in an effort to strengthen their ability to administrate and manage fair investigations and enforcement of fair housing laws. The outcomes from use of this funding will address matters affecting fair housing that are cognizable under the fair housing act. Each participating fhap agency is evaluated every two years through a performance assessment report. This report quantifies fhap performance per required measurable outcomes outlined in the cooperative agreement and regulatory requirements under C.F.R. § 115.306. Fhap agencies are given a passing score or in cases where IT does not meet the minimum required outcomes, the fhap agency is placed on a performance improvement plan which details the required improvement and timeline for remediation. The information gathered by the PAR and PIP is reported back to the fhap participating agency as an internal report not to be distributed publicly.
- Intended beneficiaries
- Any person or group of persons aggrieved by a discriminatory housing practice because of race, color, religion, SEX, disability, familial status, or national origin. Also includes organizations (e.g. fair housing groups) that have suffered an injury as a result of a discriminatory housing practice.
- Subrecipient activities
