Voucher Families Face Large Data Collection
If you are a family in the Community Choice demonstration (families with children using housing vouchers), HUD will ask you to take part in surveys and assessments. HUD estimates the total annual burden for the whole information collection is 96,437.26 hours and the total annual cost is $1,219,998.90, and values family respondent time at $12.08 per hour.
Children in Study Face Health Assessments
Children in the subset studies will be asked to take part in child assessments and health measures (for example: direct child assessments, anthropometric measures, blood spot samples, accelerometers, and blood pressure readings). The collection lists specific lines such as 400 respondents for accelerometers with 169 hours per response and large associated aggregate burden and cost figures.
Service Staff Must Report to HUD Evaluation
Service delivery staff at the eight Demonstration sites will complete HUD data collection tools. For the Mobility Service Delivery Tool HUD lists 30 staff respondents, 15,120 responses per year, 3,024 annual burden hours, and an estimated annual cost of $91,566.72 using a $30.28/hour rate.
