methodology and assumptions used; 

(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

(4) Minimize the burden of the

Section A.

A. Overview of Information Collection 

Title of Information Collection: 

Evaluation of Emergency Housing 

Voucher (EHV) Program. 

MB Approval Number: 2528–New. 

Type of Request: New collection. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: 

The purpose of this proposed 

information collection is to gather 

information in support of the Evaluation 

of the Emergency Housing Voucher 

Program. The Emergency Housing 

Voucher (EHV) Program is one of eight 

housing provisions that was included in 

the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 

(ARP). Section 3202 of ARP provided $5 

billion to HUD to fund a temporary 

voucher program that, in part, 

supported roughly 70,000 incremental 

emergency vouchers to be allocated to 

Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) via 

formula. 

The Evaluation of the EHV program 

will document the implementation and 

early outcomes of the EHV Program 

through a mixed mode data collection 

approach to provide a broad overview of 

the program nationally.

Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 192 / Thursday, October 3, 2024 / Notices 80591 

Data collection activities planned to 

be carried out as part of the evaluation 

include: (1) collecting HUD 

administrative data, (2) a national web 

survey of 611 PHAs administering the 

EHV program and 371 referring partner 

Continuums of Care (CoCs), and (3) 

telephone/virtual interviews with staff 

from a selected sample of communities, 

including PHAs, CoCs, and other PHA 

partner organizations. The evaluation 

will use a mixed-methods approach 

with administrative data and web 

survey data to measure outcomes in key 

interest areas. The follow-up telephone 

interviews will collect information on 

the experiences of program staff in 

implementing the EHV program. 

In total, HUD plans to conduct a web 

survey of 611 PHAs, a web survey of 

371 CoCs, and 50 telephone/virtual 

interviews (comprised of interviews 

with 25 PHAs and 25 CoCs/partner 

organizations). 

HUD will provide reasonable 

accommodations. Respondents who are 

blind or have vision-related disabilities, 

deaf or hard of hearing, as well as 

individuals with speech or 

communication disabilities can elect to 

participate through a web-based version 

of the data collection or through a 

telephone-based version of the data 

collection. HUD welcomes and is 

prepared to receive calls from 

individuals who are deaf or hard of 

hearing, as well as individuals with
