MTW is a long term demonstration
program authorized in 1996 and recently expanded in 2016, which
permits select PHAs to implement certain programmatic flexibilities
to address local needs. PHAs submit application materials to HUD
requesting authorization and describing their plans to implement
MTW flexibilities. All PHAs are required to submit annual plans to
HUD, however, PHAs with a Moving to Work demonstration designation,
(39 at the time of submission of this request) must submit an
Annual MTW Plan and Annual MTW Report in lieu of the standard
5-year plan and annual update. In 2013, revisions were made to this
50900 form to streamline the process of Agencies submitting
required Annual Plan and Report Data to HUD so that the Department
is able to better respond to Congressional and other inquiries
regarding outcome measures obtained and promising practices learned
throughout the duration of the demonstration. This 2017 revision of
the Form makes a variety of minor refinements to improve clarity
and usability, based on the experiences of HUD and PHAs with the
form over the last 3 years.
