Short Statement:
This data collection will serve two critical purposes. It will provide ONAP with information it needs to help determine the performance of the IHBG program for policy and program management purposes using data gathered through a community questionnaire. A second purpose for this evaluation will be to provide information that HUD can submit to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) as part of the PART process. It will help ONAP meet the PART requirement that an agency conduct an independent evaluation of the program being rated in the PART process. OMB describes independent evaluations as non-biased evaluations that are either conducted regularly or on an as-needed basis to fill gaps in performance information. This evaluation will serve as the independent evaluation of the IHBG program by helping to fill in information gaps on whether the program is effectively meeting housing needs of recipients in Indian Country.
