The U.S. Departments of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and Justice (DOJ) entered into an interagency collaboration that combines DOJ’s mission to promote safer communities by focusing on the reentry population with HUD’s mission to end chronic homelessness. This collaboration resulted in the Pay for Success Permanent Supportive Housing Demonstration with $8.68M awarded to seven communities to develop supportive housing for persons cycling between the jail or prison systems and the homeless service systems using pay for success (PFS) as a funding mechanism. HUD-DOJ announced seven grantees from across the country in June 2016. The PFS Demonstration grant supports activities throughout the PFS lifecycle, including feasibility analysis, transaction structuring, and outcome evaluation and success payments, with each grantee receiving funds for different stages in the PFS lifecycle. Through the national evaluation, which is funded through an interagency agreement between HUD and DOJ and managed by HUD’s Office of Policy Development and Research, HUD-DOJ seek to assess whether PFS is a viable model for scaling supportive housing to improve outcomes for a re-entry population. The main goal of the evaluation is to learn how the PFS model is implemented in diverse settings with different structures, populations, and community contexts. The Urban Institute has designed a multi-disciplinary, multi-method approach to “learn as we do” and meet the key objectives of the formative evaluation. To understand project implementation, the evaluation includes data collection on both the time that project partners dedicate to each PFS project as well as PFS partner perceptions and interactions and community-level changes that may benefit the target population. This information collection request is for an ongoing time survey and an annual partnership web survey. The time survey will be used to assess staff time spent on development of each PFS project throughout the different lifecycle phases and the partnership survey will be used to document partner perceptions and interactions and community-level changes that may benefit the target population.

The U.S. Departments of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) entered into an innovative interagency collaboration that combines DOJ’s mission to promote safer communities by focusing on the reentry population with HUD’s mission to end chronic homelessness. This collaboration resulted in the Pay for Success Permanent Supportive Housing Demonstration with $8.68M awarded in June 2016 to seven communities to develop supportive housing for persons cycling between the jail or prison systems using Pay for Success (PFS) as a funding mechanism. The PFS Demonstration grant supports activities throughout the PFS lifecycle, including feasibility analysis, transaction structuring, and outcome evaluation and success payments, with each grantee receiving funds for different phases in the PFS lifecycle. HUD and DOJ funded a national evaluation to assess whether PFS is a viable model for scaling supportive housing in order to improve outcomes for a re-entry population. The evaluation is funded through an interagency agreement and is managed by HUD’s Office of Policy Development and Research. The overarching goal of this formative evaluation is to learn how the PFS model is implemented in diverse settings with different structures, populations, and community contexts. The Urban Institute has designed a multi-disciplinary, multi-method process study to “learn as we do” and meet the key objectives of the formative evaluation. This information collection request concerns two specific data collection activities that are part of the national evaluation: (A) A Partnership Survey will be conducted about the development and functioning of partnerships and community-level collaborations that may benefit the target population. (B) Time Use Interview will be conducted as part of a study of the staff time that is used to develop each PFS project, through the phases of its PFS life-cycle of feasibility analysis, transaction structuring, and project implementation. The national evaluation also includes other activities not discussed in this package, including annual site visits involving semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders and observation of partnership meetings, monthly calls to discuss implementation progress and successes and challenges encountered, and review of key site documents.
