Neighborhood Outcomes--Wave Two of Panel Study.
Office: Public Housing Investments in the Office of Public and
Indian Housing, HUD
OMB Approval Number: Extension of OMB 2577-0236.
Description of the Need for the Information and its Proposed Use:
Questions have been raised among some observers of the HOPE VI program
about where the original residents of the developments are living. The
purposes of the information collected for this study is to increase
knowledge of the ways in which housing choices and outcomes of original
residents are affected by revitalization efforts at selected HOPE VI
sites. Data gathered will be used by the Urban Institute and Abt
Associates to prepare a project report that will allow HUD to begin
assessing the benefits of HOPE VI for the original residents,
particularly those that may accrue to families choosing to move to
other locations, and to provide more guidance to grantees on relocation
choices and strategies. This notice covers the second and third waves
of a three-wave panel study. The survey for waves 2 and 3 will cover
the same topic areas as were addressed in the baseline survey: housing
and neighborhood conditions; adult and child health; child education;
adult employment, income and hardship; and relocation from public
housing.
Form Number: None.
Members of Affected Public: 887 randomly selected original
residents of the five selected HOPE VI sites that have received HOPE VI
grants between 1998 and 2000 and that have not begun relocating
residents.
Frequency of Submission: Once.
