2. Homeless Outreach Project and
Evaluation (HOPE)—0960–0704.
Background. Congress passed the
McKinney Act of 1987 in recognition of
and in an effort to address situations
and conditions facing people without
permanent shelter. The Act funded 15
emergency services and nine individual
titles to authorize the provision of
specific programs by Federal agencies.
The Act also established the Interagency
Council on Homelessness (ICH)
composed of leaders from 15 Federal
agencies who are in charge of
coordinating efforts to assist people who
are homeless. During the past decade,
SSA and other ICH agencies have
compiled important data about people
who are homeless and have carried out
evaluations of services which have
generated evidence about ‘‘best’’ or
‘‘promising practices’’ well suited to
combating homelessness.
In fiscal year 2003, President George
W. Bush announced an initiative to end
chronic homelessness in 10 years. As a
result, SSA developed Project HOPE
and in May 2004 awarded 34
Cooperative Agreements to
organizations which provide outreach,
support services and benefit application
assistance to the chronically homeless
and other underserved populations. An
additional 7 cooperative agreements
were awarded in November 2004 for a
total of 41. The goal of Project HOPE is
to improve both the quantity and quality
of applications for disability benefits.
Project HOPE gives focused support to
Cooperative (co-op) awardees via a
training program and ongoing technical
assistance.
Evaluation of Project HOPE. SSA uses
the project HOPE evaluation to
determine the effectiveness and the
efficiency of the program. To obtain the
information needed for the evaluation,
SSA has developed an interactive Web
site that is used by co-op awardees to
input client and program data, and by
SSA to communicate project-wide
announcements to the awardees. The
respondents are HOPE grantees/nonprofit social services organizations
serving people who are homeless and
disabled.

3. Employee Verification Service
(EVS)—0960–0669. Background. Under
Internal Revenue Service regulations,

match SSA’s records in order for the
employee’s wage and tax data to be
properly posted to the earnings record.
Information that is incorrectly provided
to the Agency must be corrected by the
employer using an amended reporting
form, which is a labor-intensive and
time-consuming process for both SSA
and the employer. Therefore, to help
ensure that employers provide accurate
name and SSN information on their
wage reports, SSA offers the EVS service
whereby employers can verify, via
magnetic tape, cartridge, diskette, paper,
and telephone, if the reported name and
SSN of their employee matches SSA’s
records.
EVS Collection. SSA will use the
information collected through the EVS
to verify that the employee name and
SSN information, provided by
employers, matches SSA records. SSA
will respond to the employer informing
them only of matches and mismatches
of submitted information. Respondents
are employers who provide wage and
tax data to SSA who elect to use EVS
