The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has awarded three grants, totaling $624,409, to three Massachusetts agencies intended to assist those who have been victims of housing discrimination.
HAP Inc. of Springfield, Community Legal Aid Inc. of Worcester and the Fair Housing Center of Greater Boston will split Massachusetts’ share of the $28 million allocated nationally for the initiative, according to a statement.
"The Obama administration is committed to ending housing discrimination, and these grants enable local fair housing and community organizations all over the nation to help HUD enforce the Fair Housing Act, and make people more aware of their fair housing rights," HUD Secretary Shaun Donovan said in a statement.
