Community Planning and Development 

(CPD) to continue to manage and assess 

the effectiveness of its homeless 

assistance projects on an annual basis. 

Per 24 CFR 578.103(e), HUD requires 

recipients and subrecipients that receive 

funding through the CoC Program 

(authorized by the McKinney-Vento 

Homeless Assistance Act, as amended) 

to prepare and submit annual projectlevel reports on performance and 

spending. 

This request will also enable the HUD 

CPD Office to initiate a process to assess 

the effectiveness of local coordinated 

systems of homeless assistance. The 

McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance 

Act, as amended, requires communities 

to measure their performance as a 

coordinated system, in addition to 

analyzing performance of specific 

projects and project types. Section 427 

of the Act established a set of selection 

criteria for HUD to use in awarding CoC 

Program funding. These selection 

criteria require CoCs to report to HUD 

their system-level performance. The 

intent of these selection criteria are to 

encourage CoCs, in coordination with 

Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) 

Program recipients and all other 

homeless assistance stakeholders in the 

community, to regularly measure their 

progress in meeting the needs of people 

experiencing homelessness in their 

community and to report this progress 

to HUD. This request is for HUD to 

collect system-level performance 

measure data from CoCs on an annual 

basis, as described in Appendix B of 

this document. 

The project APR and system-level 

performance measures both rely on a 

primary data source in each CoC—a 

local Homeless Management 

Information System (HMIS). An HMIS is 

an electronic data collection system that 

stores project-level and person-level 

information about homeless persons 

who access a community’s homeless 

service system. Over the past two 

decades, HUD has supported the 

development of local HMIS by funding 

their development and implementation, 

by providing technical assistance, and 

by developing national data standards 

that enable the collection of 

standardized information on the 

characteristics, service patterns and 

service needs of homeless persons 

within a jurisdiction and across 

jurisdictions. These standards are 

described in HUD’s HMIS Data 

Standards. 

In addition to a CoC’s HMIS data, the 

system-level performance measures will 

also rely on data collected by CoCs as 

part of their Point-in-Time (PIT) count 

efforts. CoCs are required by HUD to 

complete a sheltered PIT count of all 

homeless persons who are sheltered in 

emergency shelter, transitional housing, 

and Safe Havens and a count of 

unsheltered persons on a single night in 

January at least once every other year. 

HUD incentivizes annual participation 

in the sheltered and unsheltered PIT 

count through its annual CoC Program 

Competition. HUD releases a Notice 

which outlines its data collection 

guidance for the PIT count and the 

Housing Inventory Count (HIC), which 

is an annual point-in-time inventory of 

projects within a CoC that provide beds 

and units dedicated to serve persons 

who are homeless. jurisdictions. These 

standards are described in HUD’s HMIS 

Data Standards.

program. 

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the Computer

independent public auditors (IPAs) that 

audit both PHAs and O/As. The most 

recent renewal of the current matching 

agreement expires on October 15, 2024. 

DATES: Comments Due Date: November 

14, 2024. The CMA will become 

applicable 30 days after the publication 

of this notice, unless comments have 

been received from interested members 

of the public requiring modification and 

republication of the notice. The 

matching program will continue for 18 

months after the applicable date and 

may be extended for an additional 12 

months, if the respective agency Data 

Integrity Boards (DIBs) determine that 

the conditions specified in 5 U.S.C.
