SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the information collection described in
Section A.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: Evaluation of the HUD-DOJ Pay for
Success Permanent Supportive Housing Demonstration.
OMB Approval Number: 2528-0319.
Type of Request: Extension without change of currently approved
collection.
Form Number: N/A.
Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The
U.S. Departments of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and Justice
(DOJ) entered into an interagency collaboration that combines DOJ's
mission to promote safer communities by focusing on the reentry
population with HUD's mission to end chronic homelessness. This
collaboration resulted in the HUD-DOJ Pay for Success Permanent
Supportive Housing Demonstration with $8.68M awarded to seven
communities to develop
[[Page 54030]]
supportive housing for persons cycling between the jail or prison
systems and the homeless service systems using pay for success (PFS) as
a funding mechanism. HUD announced seven grantees from across the
country in June 2016. As of August 2020, six grantee communities
remain. The PFS Demonstration grant supports activities throughout the
PFS lifecycle, including feasibility analysis, transaction structuring,
and outcome evaluation and success payments, with each grantee
receiving funds for different stages in the PFS lifecycle. Through the
national evaluation, which is funded through an interagency agreement
between HUD and DOJ and managed by HUD's Office of Policy Development
and Research, HUD-DOJ seek to assess whether PFS is a viable model for
scaling supportive housing to improve outcomes for a re-entry
population. The main goal of the evaluation is to learn how the PFS
model is implemented in diverse settings with different structures,
populations, and community contexts. The Urban Institute has been
conducting a multi-disciplinary, multi-method approach to ``learn as we
do'' and meet the key objectives of the formative evaluation. To
understand project implementation, the evaluation includes data
collection on both the time that project partners dedicate to each PFS
project as well as PFS partner perceptions and interactions and
community-level changes that may benefit the target population. This
information collection request is for an ongoing time survey and an
annual partnership web survey. The time survey will be used to assess
staff time spent on development of each PFS project throughout the
different lifecycle phases and the partnership survey will be used to
document partner perceptions and interactions and community-level
changes that may benefit the target population.
Respondents: PFS grantee staff and other project stakeholders.
Estimated Number of Respondents: The annual web-based partnership
survey will have up to 65 respondents across all 4 remaining
Demonstration sites. The quarterly web-based time survey will have up
to 17 respondents across all sites.
Estimated Time per Response: The response time for the annual web-
based partnership survey is .25 hour. The response time for the
quarterly web-based time survey is 1 hour.
Frequency of Response: The annual web-based partnership survey will
be administered once annually. The web-based time survey will be
administered four times annually.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: The total annual burden for
this information collection is 84.25 hrs.
Estimated Total Annual Cost: The total annual cost for this
information collection is $2,461.79.
The typical key project partner role is either a management or
support role. The estimate uses the average of the most recent (May
2022) Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Employment Statistics
median hourly wages for the labor categories Social and Community
Services Manager (11-9151) and Community and Social Service Specialist,
All Other (21-1099). To estimate cost burden to project partner
respondents, we averaged the median hourly wage for the two labor
categories; this produces an average of the occupations listed or
$29.22.
