A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Rural Capacity Building.
    OMB Approval Number: 2506-0195.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Form Number: SF-424, SF-424B, SF-LLL, HUD 2880, HUD 4130.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The 
Rural Capacity Building for Community Development and Affordable 
Housing (RCB) program and the funding made available have been 
authorized by the Annual Appropriations Acts each year since FY 2012. 
The RCB program enhances the capacity and ability of rural housing 
development organizations, Community Development Corporations (CDCs), 
Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDOs), local governments, 
and Indian tribes (eligible beneficiaries) to carry out affordable 
housing and community development activities in rural areas for the 
benefit of low- and moderate-income families and persons. The RCB 
program achieves this by funding National Organizations with expertise 
in rural housing and rural community development who work directly to 
build the capacity of eligible beneficiaries. Applicants to the RCB 
program are required to submit certain information as part of their 
application for assistance, and as part of the requirements as a 
grantee.
