a 1,675 clients are expected to receive home modifications. Grantees will need to screen approximately 2,233 applicants and complete evaluation Client Eligibility 

Documentation forms for each of these applicants to reach their unit goal. bOf the 2,235 OAHMP applicants, 25% (558) are expected to be determined ineligible for program services, another 20% (335) of eligible clients are expected to 

decline to participate in the evaluation, and another 25% (268) are expected to be lost to project follow up by the end of the evaluation period. Grantees are required 

to complete the lost to project form for all applicants and clients lost to the project (1,164). cGrantees will complete the Home Modification Documentation only with clients who agree to participate in the evaluation. We estimate 25% of the eligible applicants (1676) will refuse to participate, leading to a total of 1,341 clients for which grantees will complete the form. dOne program manager from each of up to 25 grantees will complete the Grantee Process Evaluation Online Survey each year of the three year period of performance (3X). eThe Contractor will administer the Grantee Site Visit Interview Guide with approximately two grantee representatives at up to 12 site visits.

a 1,677 applicants are expected to be eligible to receive home modifications. Program Questionnaire and Home Hazard baseline data will be collected for all of 

these clients. bAssuming 20% (335) of eligible clients do not consent to participate in the Evaluation, 1,341 clients are expected to complete the baseline Client Impact Evaluation. cOf the clients that agree to participate in the Evaluation, it is assumed 20% (268) will be lost to project follow up during the course of the Evaluation, resulting in 

post-modification data being collected from 1,074 clients. dAssuming 40% of the clients contacted decline to participate in the process survey (134), we will contact 335 clients to ensure up to 200 of the clients who receive 

home modifications participate in the Client Process Evaluation interviews.

hunting, shooting, harming, wounding, 

or killing, and also such activities as 

pursuing, harassing, trapping, capturing, 

or collecting.
