This collection
is approved for the two pretests only. HUD will submit to OMB the
results of the pretests and any changes in the instruments, or
sample size, or methods for approval prior to conducting the main
collection; OMB waives the Federal Register notices for these
changes if they are non substantive in nature. HUD will also submit
verification that it has received a certificate of confidentiality
from NIH prior to the main study. After completion of the main
study, HUD has agreed to report back to OMB on achieved response
rates and provide copies of methodological reports on the effects
of the incentives for phase II, and on nonresponse bias analyses
when those are available.

The MTO for Fair Housing Demonstration
provides a unique opportunity to definitively measure the impacts
of an important change in neighborhood opportunity on the
employment, income, educational achievement, and social well-being
of low-income public housing families. Between 1994 and 1998
families living in high poverty public housing in Boston, New York,
Baltimore, Chicago, and Los Angeles were given an opportunity to
move to lower poverty neighborhoods with a Housing Choice Voucher.
This program was designed with a long-range research goal to
measure how this move affected these families over time. This data
collection request is for the final evaluation, measuring impacts
after 10 years.
