soliciting public comments on the
subject proposal.
In 2011, HUD’s Office of Fair Housing
and Equal Opportunity (FHEO) began an
outreach initiative to strengthen FHEO’s
ties with community-based
organizations that work with the public.
As part of that initiative, FHEO has held
a series of training events around the
country to bring together public and
private fair housing professionals with
community leaders and organizations
that work directly with members of the
public. By training advocates from
organizations that work with
underserved communities, FHEO hopes
that organizations will be able to
recognize and report discrimination in

the communities they serve. FHEO
would like to survey conference
participants to see if they have used
knowledge and/or distributed
informational material they obtained at
these events. This information will
allow FHEO to access the success of the
outreach and the worth of conducting
this type of outreach in the future.
DATES: Comments Due Date: May 6,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Department is submitting the proposed
information collection to OMB for
review, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35, as amended).
This Notice is soliciting comments
from members of the public and affected
agencies concerning the proposed
collection of information to: (1) Evaluate
whether the proposed collection is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have

The information collected from these
surveys will be used to determine if

education and outreach training
conferences were useful to the
participants and advanced the goals of
our office. The hope is that by attending
the training these organizations learned
more about rights protected by the Fair
Housing Act and other fair housing law.
The questions also ask about the impact
the training has had on the
organization’s activities. For example,
the survey asks whether or not the
organization have filed, or helped
someone file a fair housing complaint
since the training. This information will
allow FHEO to assess the success of the
education and outreach events and the
worth of conducting this type of
outreach in the future.
Agency form numbers, if applicable:
None.
Estimation of the total numbers of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection including number of
respondents, frequency of response, and
hours of response: The number of
burden hours is about 100 hours (6000
minutes) to complete the survey. This
burden was calculated by estimating
that the total number of people to
receive the survey will be 700 people
per year. The predicted number of
people to respond to the survey is 600
people per year. The survey should take
around 10 minutes to complete, creating
a total time burden of 6000 minutes.
Status of the proposed information
collection: This is a new collection.
Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995, 44 U.S.C., Chapter 35, as amended.
