In its subrecipient role, FHCS received three sub-awards from the City of Akron (October 2025, July 2024, and September 2023) funding fair housing complaint processing, market audits and monitoring, tenant and landlord services, homeownership counseling, and public education within Akron for calendar-year terms.
