Notice of Submission of Proposed
Information Collection to OMB; Family
Self-Sufficiency Program
Demonstration
Office of the Chief Information
Officer, HUD.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The proposed information
collection requirement described below
has been submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act. The Department is
soliciting public comments on the
subject proposal.
The Department is conducting this
study under contract with MDRC and its
subcontractors (Branch Associates and
M. Davis and Company, Inc.). The
project is an evaluation of the Family
Self-Sufficiency Program operated at
Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) across
the U.S. The study will use random
assignment methods to evaluate the
effectiveness of the program. FSS has
operated since 1992 and serves voucher
holders and residents of public housing.
The FSS model is essentially case
management plus an escrow account.
FSS case managers create a plan with
families to achieve goals and connect
with services that will enhance their
employment opportunities. Families
accrue money in their escrow accounts
as they increase their earnings. To date,
HUD has funded two other studies of
the FSS program, but neither can tell us
how well families would have done in
the absence of the program. A random
assignment model is needed because
participant self-selection into FSS limits
the ability to know whether program
features rather than the characteristics
of the participating families caused
tenant income gains. Random
assignment will limit the extent to
which selection bias is driving observed
results. The demonstration will
document the progress of a group of FSS
participants from initial enrollment to
program completion (or exit). The intent

is to gain a deeper understanding of the
program and illustrate strategies that
assist participants to obtain greater
economic independence. While the
main objective of FSS is stable, suitable
employment, there are many interim
outcome of interest, which include:
Getting a first job; getting a higher
paying job; self-employment/small
business ownership; no longer needing
benefits provided under one or more
welfare programs; obtaining additional
education, whether in the form of a high
school diploma, higher education
degree, or vocational training; buying a
home; buying a car; setting up savings
accounts; or accomplishing similar goals
that lead to economic independence.
Data collection will include the families
that are part of the treatment and control
groups, as well as PHA staff. Data will
be gathered through a variety of
methods including surveys,
informational interviews, direct
observation, and analysis of
administrative records.
DATES:
Comments Due Date: March 14,
2013.
Interested persons are
invited to submit comments regarding
this proposal. Comments should refer to
the proposal by name and/or OMB
approval Number (2528-New) and
