Project Description

Project Title:  View help for Project Title PUBLIC HOUSING AGENCY HOMELESSNESS PREFERENCES: WEB CENSUS SURVEY DATA
Summary:  View help for Summary Welcome to the survey of PHA Engagement with Homeless Households. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has contracted with Abt Associates and its subsidiary Abt SRBI to conduct this survey. The information collected will allow researchers to explore and document how Public Housing Authorities (PHAs) currently serve homeless households. Our purpose is to establish a baseline level of PHAs’ current engagement in serving homeless households and to better understand the current opportunities provided by PHAs that have an explicit preference for homeless households. Findings of this study will enable HUD to:

--identify the variety of mechanisms that PHAs employ to target homeless households for assistance; 
--highlight innovative ways in which PHAs may be engaging with homeless households;highlight the broader set of community partners providing services to homeless people.

Through this study PHAs will learn from each other about different approaches to assisting homeless families. Responses to this survey will be used for research purposes only and will NOT be used for compliance monitoring. If you have questions about the survey please call 1‐866‐626‐9805 or email us at [email protected]. If you have questions about the study itself, please contact Ms. Anne Fletcher, Social Science Analyst, Office of Policy Development and Research, HUD at (202) 402‐4347 or Ms. Eliza Kean, the Abt Associates Project Director at (301) 634‐1743.
