Abstract: The Continuum of Care Homeless Assistance Application - 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 Continuum of Care program. A small change was made to the burden hours in this package to account for the decreased overall number of CoCs and increased number of CoCs applying for UFA status.

Short Statement: This collection of information continues the changes that were included in the previous approved package regarding the HEARTH Act and 24 CFR part 578. This package has been changed to show that the number of respondents has decreased (to 410, from 450 previously) due in large part to CoCs merging to combine resources and funding. In addition, while the total burden hours per CoC respondent stayed the same (at two hours), the registration process shown in question 12, Burden Estimate, was broken out to show that the Registration forms and the GIW are distinct estimates.
