About H.o.p.e., Inc.

H.o.p.e., Inc. (doing business as Hope Fair Housing Center) is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Wheaton, Illinois, that serves as a prime recipient of federal grants for fair housing education, enforcement, and advocacy work across forty counties in Illinois. The organization operates exclusively as a grant recipient, not as a federal contractor, with 92% of recent awards as a prime grant recipient and 8% as a sub-recipient on federal grant sub-awards.

Hope Fair Housing Center's customer base is concentrated entirely within the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity, which accounts for all 24 prime grant awards in the source data. The organization's grant portfolio spans two primary HUD program tracks: Fair Housing Organization Initiatives (CFDA 14.417) and Private Enforcement Initiatives. Recent representative grants include a $125,000 Project Grant awarded May 1, 2026 (performance period through April 30, 2027) supporting fair housing education, outreach, and enforcement activities; a grant dated June 1, 2024 (completion May 31, 2026) funding full-service fair housing enforcement with client intakes, advocacy, and discrimination testing; and prior-year Fair Housing Organization Initiatives grants dated July 1, 2023 and earlier supporting education and outreach work. The organization also holds two federal grant sub-awards dated November 19, 2025 and September 23, 2024, in which it provides partial salary and benefits support for staff delivering outreach, education, and fair housing enforcement services.

Hope Fair Housing Center's concrete service portfolio encompasses fair housing investigations, discrimination testing, client counseling and advocacy, community education initiatives, and training for housing professionals and public housing agencies. Recent work includes paid media campaigns addressing antisemitism and Islamophobia in housing; creation of frequently-asked-questions webpages and video libraries on fair housing law; client intake and direct advocacy services (targeting 350 annual client intakes and 20 households per year for direct advocacy); and outreach to public and subsidized housing populations on arrest and conviction record treatment under fair housing law. The organization has operated continuously since 1968 and describes itself as the only fair housing service provider across most of its forty-county service area in Illinois. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $9.2 million over the source period. One award with ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months faces potential recompete.
