Abstract: HUD seeks to collect data from the EnVision Center Demonstration sites to find out the effectiveness of collaborative efforts by government, industry, and nonprofit organizations to accelerate economic mobility of low-income households in communities that include HUD-assisted housing. The demonstration builds upon existing partnerships and continues collaborative work to improve the lives of residents housed with HUD assistance, by providing a forum by which cross-sector organizations can come together to design and implement local interventions to advance self-sufficiency and economic mobility through a four-pillar approach to opportunity. The four pillars are: (1) Economic Empowerment, (2) Educational Advancement, (3) Health and Wellness, and (4) Character and Leadership. HUD believes that these four pillars can be the foundation for driving collaboration amongst communities, the private sector, and the federal government, intended to improve the quality of life of HUD-assisted and low-income households and to empower them to become self-sufficient.

Short Statement: This is a new data collection effort, as EnVision Centers is a new demonstration sponsored by HUD. HUD’s Office of Policy Development & Research plans to use the data for multiple purposes. HUD will use both the Letters of Commitment and Action Plans to assess an organization’s intent to promote and expand economic mobility within their local community and determine their readiness in becoming an EnVision Center. Action Plans will describe the goals of the community’s participation in the demonstration and provide, to the extent as possible, objective goals regarding the number of partnerships established with state and local government, non-profits, faith-based organizations, and private and philanthropic organizations. The Action plan serves as a vehicle for bringing together stakeholders and providing them with a tangible path for achieving the goals of the EnVision Center. These plans will specify and formalize the participation of community stakeholders, describe gaps in current service delivery models, describe the onsite arrangements for intake processing and referrals to network stakeholders, identify the physical location(s) which can act as a shared services site to house the EnVision Center, and/or outline specific benchmarks and goals for the EnVision Center. These plans could also capture the goals of the community’s participation in the demonstration and provide, to the extent possible, objective indicators of success regarding the number of partnerships established with state and local government, non-profits, faith -based organizations, and private and philanthropic organizations. Progress reports will be required on a quarterly basis in order to track EnVision Center implementation, assess and address Technical Assistance (TA) needs, and monitor activities, outputs and outcomes. A EnVision Center Survey will be administered within 30-days to individuals who go through the EnVision Center’s intake process. This will provide information about how participants are experiencing the supports, referrals, and placement processes.
