The Continuum of Care Homeless Assistance ApplicationÂRegistration is part of the currently approved information collection package 2506-0112. The request for a new information collection is to separate the Continuum of Care Registration from the Continuum of Care Homeless Assistance Application. The registration information is necessary to assist in the selection of proposals submitted to HUD (by State and local governments, public housing authorities, and nonprofit organizations) for the awarded funds under the Supportive Housing, Shelter Plus Care, and Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation Single Occupancy for Homeless Individuals programs..
This is a new collection; however, the data elements were formerly a part of 2506-0112. Therefore, we have information regarding burden hours from years past. The burden hours per respondent were lessened this year by bringing all information forward from the Continuum of Care Competition in Fiscal Year 2008. We expect the burden hours to continually decrease in the 2009 Competition as CoCs become more familiar with the electronic system.
