This project is a survey of HUDs
Multifamily Assisted Housing properties that are eligible for the
Service Coordinator Program. The study will be administered to a
statistical sample of properties. This study involves a telephone
survey of multifamily property managers. The survey will assess the
level of satisfaction with the provision of service coordination
that links residents of Multifamily Assisted Housing to the needed
supportive services.
This information collection
involves a survey of multifamily property managers. The survey will
be administered to a statistical sample of properties that are
eligible for the Service Coordinator Program. The Department does
not know the extent of properties with Service Coordinator grants.
This research serves two purposes. First, through developing an
estimate of the number of eligible projects that actually have
service coordinators, this study will assess the availability of
service coordinators for residents of Multifamily Assisted Housing.
Second, to better understand what difference service coordination
makes in providing supportive services to elderly and non-elderly
people with disabilities living in HUD-assisted housing, this study
will provide some evidence of the importance of service
coordinators for aging in place.
