Title of Proposal: Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS
(HOPWA) Program: Annual Performance Reporting Requirements and
Competitive/Renewal Grant Budget Summary Forms.
Description of Information Collection: These forms provide HUD with
vital information to assess program evaluation and measure performance
outcomes for the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA)
program. Competitive/Renewal grant recipients submit an Annual Progress
Report (APR) and Formula grantees submit the Consolidated Annual
Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). These annual reports provide
HUD with information about program beneficiaries in addition to
enabling HUD to assess the success of the HOPWA program through the
three performance goals of housing stability, prevention of
homelessness, and access to care and support. Information collected in
the reports allows HUD to fulfill reporting requirements for internal
reporting requirements, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and
other entities.
OMB Control Number: 2506-0133.
Agency Form Numbers: HUD-40110-B HOPWA Competitive and Renewal of
Permanent Supportive Housing Project Budget Summary; HUD-40110-C Annual
Progress Report (APR); and HUD-40110-D Consolidated Annual Performance
and Evaluation Report (CAPER).
Members of Affected Public: Formula and competitive grant
recipients of the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA)
program.
Estimation of the total number of hours needed to prepare the
information collection including number of respondents, frequency of
response, and hours of response: APR (96 respondents and total annual
responses x 55 hours per response = 5,280 hours) + CAPER (124
respondents and total annual responses x 40 hours per response = 4,960
hours) + HOPWA Competitive & Renewal of Permanent Supportive Housing
Project Budget Summary (35 respondents and total annual responses x 12
hours per response = 420 hours) = 10,660 hours.
Status of the proposed information collection: Revision of
currently approved collection.
Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35, as amended.
