Fair housing assistance program state and local

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity awarded a $122,000 Cooperative Agreement to Louisville-Jefferson County Metro (operating as the Louisville Metro Department of Community Services and Revitalization) on October 1, 2025, under the Fair Housing Assistance Program (CFDA 14.401).

The award funds fair housing enforcement activities including investigation and processing of housing discrimination complaints, fair housing training and technical assistance, and education and outreach conducted within the Louisville, Kentucky metropolitan area through September 30, 2026. Louisville Metro operates as a certified state and local fair housing enforcement agency substantially equivalent to HUD standards, authorized to receive and process discrimination complaints referred by the federal government.

The performance period runs October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026. Place of performance is Louisville, Kentucky 40202. This is the recipient's eleventh consecutive Cooperative Agreement award under this program since October 2021, reflecting sustained certification and demonstrated capacity in fair housing compliance administration. The FHAP program operates as a reimbursement mechanism; funds are obligated following regional monitor review of processed complaints, with awards issued once both the agency and the HUD Regional Director sign off on the Cooperative Agreement package.
