SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in

The Federal Register notice that
solicited public comment on the
information collection for a period of 60
days was published on April 12, 2023
at 88 FR 22063.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Evaluation of the Eviction Protection
Grant Program.
OMB Approval Number: 2528-New.
Type of Request: New Collection.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
purpose of this proposed information
collection is to gather information in
support of an evaluation of the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban
Development’s (HUD) Eviction
Protection Grant Program. The overall
purpose of the Eviction Protection Grant
Program is to support experienced legal
service providers, not limited to legal
service corporations, in providing legal
assistance at no cost to low-income
tenants at risk of or subject to eviction.
In 2021, HUD selected 10 grantees for
the first round of awards, and in FY
2022, HUD selected 11 additional
grantees for the second round of awards.
HUD’s evaluation of the Eviction
Protection Grant Program will include
data collection from the first two rounds
of 21 grantees and their subrecipients
that are helping to administer the
program, as well as from program
participants.
The evaluation of the Eviction
Protection Grant Program is a mixedmethods and multiphase study designed
to understand how the grantees
implemented this new program and to
assess the effectiveness of the grant
program in supporting low-income
families at risk or facing eviction
through the provision of legal assistance
at no-cost to eligible households. The
evaluation is comprised of an
implementation analysis utilizing
qualitative and quantitative data to
understand how the Eviction Protection
Grant Program reduces or prevents
eviction among program participants.
The evaluation will comprehensively
document the implementation of the
Eviction Protection Grant Program,

PO 00000

Frm 00042

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

including a review and collection of
data to understand successes and
challenges to program implementation,
the characteristics of grantees and other
stakeholders, the types of client services
provided, how grantees work with other
social service providers, and program
outcomes.
Over the course of the evaluation,
HUD plans to conduct two rounds of
data collection. The first round of
primary data collection will take place
early in the grant period and be focused
on assessing program rollout, program
take-up, and program implementation.
The second round of primary data
collection will take place later in the
grant period and will focus on the
overall experience of grantees,
subrecipients, and program participants
with the Eviction Protection Grant
Program. Each round of data collection
will include semi-structured interviews
with staff from each of the 21 grantees
and their 21 subrecipients, as well as
data collection from program
participants to understand their
perspective on the program. HUD
intends to conduct focus groups with
program participants, but if that is not
feasible, HUD will conduct 1:1 online
interviews with a sample of program
participants.
In the first round of data collection,
HUD plans to conduct 42 semistructured interviews, which will
include 126 grantee and subrecipient
staff (an average of three staff per
interview). In the second round of data
collection, HUD again plans to conduct
42 semi-structured interviews, which
will include 126 grantee and
subrecipient staff (an average of three
staff per interview). Across both rounds
of data collection, HUD will facilitate 21
focus groups with 105 program
participants (5 program participants per
focus group), and 1:1 online interviews
with 42 program participants.
All outreach may be made available in
language-appropriate materials
suggested by grantees as relevant for
their beneficiary population.
Recruitment materials will also specify
the process of requesting
accommodations for people with
limited English proficiency and
reasonable accommodations for persons
with disabilities.
Respondents: Staff from the 21
grantees of HUD’s Eviction Protection
Grant Program, staff fr.
