Title: VHA Homeless Programs— 

Project CHALENG (Community 

Homelessness Assessment, Local 

Education and Networking Groups) for 

Veterans. 

OMB Control Number: 2900–0843. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Abstract: The Department of Veterans 

Affairs (VA) launched Project 

CHALENG (Community Homelessness 

Assessment, Local Education and 

Networking Groups) for Veterans in 

1993 in response to Public Law 102– 

405, which required VA to make an 

assessment of the needs of homeless 

Veterans in coordination with other 

Federal departments, state and local 

government agencies, and 

nongovernmental agencies with 

experience working with homeless 

persons. Since 1993, VA has 

administered a needs assessment in 

accordance with guidance in Public Law 

103–446 and Public Law 105–114. Legal 

authority for this data collection is 

found under 38 U.S.C., Part I, Chapter 

5, Section 527 that authorizes the 

collection of data that will allow 

measurement and evaluation of the 

Department of Veterans Affairs 

Programs, the goal of which is improved 

health care for Veterans. 

This collection of information is 

necessary to ensure that VA and 

community partners are developing 

services that are responsive to the needs 

of local homeless Veterans, in order to 

end homelessness and prevent new 

Veterans from experiencing 

homelessness. Over the years, data from 

CHALENG has assisted VA in 

developing new services for Veterans 

such as the Homeless Veteran Dental 

Program (HVDP), the expansion of the 

Department of Housing and Urban 

Development–VA Supportive Housing 

(HUD–VASH) Program, the Veterans 

Justice Programs and Supportive 

Services for Veteran Families (SSVF). In 

addition, community organizations use 

CHALENG data in grant applications to 

support services for homeless Veterans; 

these grant applications are for VA, 

other Federal, local government, and 

community foundation dollars, which 

maximize community participation in 

serving homeless Veterans. 

This collection will be an update of a 

collection approved in 2018. Revisions 

to the collection were made based on 

input provided by VA staff members to 

reduce the number of questions in the 

surveys. The collection consists of two 

forms/surveys: One for Veterans (VA 

Form 10–10161) and one for VA staff 

members, community homeless 

providers, and interested community 

members (VA Form 10–10162). The 

only difference between the two forms/ 

surveys are the introductory 

demographic questions; the survey is 

the same for both groups. 

Affected Public: Individuals and 

households. 

Estimated Annual Burden: Total = 

480 hours. 

Veteran Survey (VA Form 10–10161): 

300 hours. 

Provider Survey (VA Form 10–10162): 

180 hours. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Respondent: 

Veteran Survey: 6 minutes. 

Provider Survey: 6 minutes. 

Frequency of Response: Once 

annually. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

4,800 total. 

Veteran Survey: 3,000. 

Provider Survey: 1,800. 

By direction of the Secretary.
