Which agency is part of the Department of Housing and Urban Development?

• A. Government National Mortgage Association
• B. National Park Service
• C. Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity
• D. Bureau of Indian Affairs

Answer: (C)

This question tests recognizing which unit is an official part of the Department of Housing and Urban Development. HUD's job is housing policy and urban development, and its internal components include offices that enforce civil rights in housing. The Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity fits this role perfectly because it is the internal office dedicated to enforcing the Fair Housing Act, investigating housing-discrimination complaints, and promoting equal access to housing.

The other options lie outside HUD: the National Park Service and the Bureau of Indian Affairs belong to the Department of the Interior, and the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae) is a government corporation within HUD, not an agency or office. So the Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity is the correct HUD component.
