SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

section A.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Evaluation of the Section 811 Project
Rental Assistance Program, Phase I.
OMB Approval Number: N/A.
Type of Request: New.
Form Number: N/A.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
Office of Policy Research and
Development, U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development
(HUD), is proposing a data collection
activity as part of the evaluation of the
Section 811 Supportive Housing for
Persons with Disabilities (Section 811)
Project Rental Assistance (PRA)
Program. The PRA Program is a new
model of housing assistance authorized
in 2010 that provides project-based
rental assistance to state housing
agencies for the development of
supportive housing for extremely lowincome persons with disabilities.
Housing agencies must have a formal
partnership with the state health and
human service agency and the state
Medicaid provider to provide services
and supports directly to residents living
in units funded with Section 811 PRA.
The Section 811 PRA program
authorizing statute requires HUD to
describe the assistance under the
program, to analyze its effectiveness,
and propose recommendations for
future assistance under Section 811.
HUD is implementing a two-phase
evaluation of the Section 811 PRA
program. The first phase of the
evaluation is focused on a process
evaluation that will describe the
implementation of the program in the
first 12 states awarded Section 811 PRA
funds. The second phase will evaluate
the program effectiveness and its impact
on residents. This request for OMB
clearance covers the first phase of the
evaluation. Data collection includes inperson interviews with staffs at state
agencies, (housing, health and human
services and state Medicaid providers)
Number of
respondents
Respondents
Frequency of
response
and Section 811 PRA Partner Agencies
(property owners or managers of
properties where Section 811 PRA
participants live and staff at
organizations that provide supportive
services to PRA participants). The
purpose of the interviews is to
document the implementation
experience of the Section 811 PRA
Program.
Respondents (i.e. affected public):
State housing agencies, state health and
human service and Medicaid provider
agencies, and Section 811 PRA Partner
Agencies.
Total Estimated Burden: For the state
housing agency staff, state health and
human service agency staff and state
Medicaid agency staff, researchers will
administer interviews on the
implementation of the Section 811 PRA
Program for a total of five hours. An
additional two hours will be needed to
compile material needed on the PRA
program in order to answer the research
questions. The total burden for state
housing agency and Medicaid
respondents is 168 hours. The average
burden of interviews for Section 811
PRA Partner Agency staff is one hour,
with an additional hour to compile
information needed to complete the
interview. The total burden for PRA
Partner Agencies is 137.5 hours. The
total burden for all respondents is 305.5
hours.
