Evaluation Process – These are standard requirements that HUD will expect every program manager receiving a grant to do as part of their project management.
An evaluation process will be part of the on-going management of the program.
Comparisons will be made between projected and actual numbers for both outputs and outcomes.
Deviations from projected outputs and outcomes will be documented and explained.
Analysis of data to determine the relationship of outputs to outcomes; what outputs produce which outcomes.
HUD Will Use The Following Questions To Evaluate Your Program
How many new Fair Housing clients were there?
How many persons attending workshops, counseling and classes by English and non-English speakers?
How many landlords and industry representatives attending Fair Housing activities?
How many complaints were filed?
How many complaints were resolved?
How many persons had their living or housing situation improved?
How many homeless persons found housing?
Was there a reduction in the number of foreclosures? If so, how many?
Carter-Richmond Methodology
