Minnesota Housing requires that each housing provider carry out an affirmative marketing program to attract prospective buyers or tenants in the housing market area regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability or familial status.  The plan should detail how the housing provider intends to market to, and attract, populations that are least likely to apply to the project.  Minnesota Housing may review your marketing efforts to ensure it is being carried out in accordance with your AFHMP.

What form do I complete?
•	All housing providers should complete Form HUD-935.2A.
•	This addendum should not be completed if the property only receives a subsidy such as Section 811 PRA or project-based Section 8 that requires the submission of the HUD-935.2A directly to HUD. Also, if the development has Rural Development rental assistance and/or a Rural Development loan, AFHMP submissions should be sent directly to Rural Development staff and this addendum should not be completed.
•	If you complete this addendum, do not complete section 4a of HUD-935.2A pursuant to Minn. Admin. Rules 4900.0340.

When do I need to review the AFHMP?
•	Review your AFHMP every 1-2 years to ensure it reflects current demographics and is up-to-date on your marketing efforts.
•	If you review the AFHMP and determine a revision is not needed, maintain a file documenting what was reviewed, results of the review, and why no changes were made.

When do I need to create a new AFHMP?
•	A new AFHMP is required if:
o	The population least likely to apply is different than that on the current AFHMP;
o	The advertising publicly cited in the current AFHMP is no longer appropriate;
o	Demographics of the housing market area have changed in terms of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, or disability; or
o	The outreach currently being performed is not reaching those it is intended to reach as measured by project occupancy and applicant data.

When do I need to submit a revised AFHMP to Minnesota Housing?
•	As requested by Minnesota Housing.  Minnesota Housing will typically request your current AFHMP every 2-5 years in conjunction with your inspection schedule, but can request a new form to be completed at any time.
