                     Subpart D_Program Requirements

 

Sec.  582.300  General operation.





    (a) Participation of homeless individuals. (1) Each recipient must 

provide for the consultation and participation of not less than one 

homeless individual or formerly homeless individual on the board of 

directors or other equivalent policy-making entity of the recipient, to 

the extent that the entity considers and makes policies and decisions 

regarding any housing assisted under this part or services for the 

participants. This requirement is waived if the applicant is unable to 

meet the requirement and presents a plan, which HUD approves, to 

otherwise consult with homeless or formerly homeless individuals in 

considering and making such policies and decisions. Participation by 

such an individual who also is a participant under the program does not 

constitute a conflict of interest under Sec.  582.340(b) of this part.

    (2) To the maximum extent practicable, each recipient must involve 

homeless individuals and families, through employment, volunteer 

services, or otherwise, in constructing or rehabilitating housing 

assisted under this part and in providing supportive services required 

under Sec.  582.215 of this part.

    (b) Ongoing assessment of housing and supportive services. Each 

recipient of assistance must conduct an ongoing assessment of the 

housing assistance and supportive services required by the participants, 

and make adjustments as appropriate.

    (c) Adequate supportive services. Each recipient must assure that 

adequate supportive services are available to participants in the 

program.

    (d) Records and reports. (1) Each recipient must keep any records 

and, within the timeframe required, make any reports (including those 

pertaining to race, ethnicity, gender, and disability status data) that 

HUD may require.

    (2) Each recipient must keep on file, and make available to the 

public on request, a description of the procedures used to select 

sponsors under the SRA component and buildings under the SRO, SRA, and 

PRA components.

    (3) Each recipient must develop, and make available to the public 

upon request, its procedures for managing the rental housing assistance 

funds provided by HUD. At a minimum, such procedures must describe how 

units will be identified and selected; how the responsibility for 

inspections will be handled; the process for deciding which unit a 

participant will occupy; how participants will be placed in, or assisted 

in finding appropriate housing; how rent calculations will be made and 

the amount of rental assistance payments determined; and what safeguards 

will be used to prevent the misuse of funds.
