About Us
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD's)
Office of Policy Development and Research (PD&R) supports the Department's
efforts to help create cohesive, economically viable and healthy
communities.
PD&R is responsible for maintaining current information on housing
needs, market conditions, and existing programs, as well as conducting
research on priority housing and community development issues. The
Office provides reliable and objective data and analysis to help
inform policy decisions. PD&R is committed to involving a greater
diversity of perspectives, methods, and researchers in HUD research.
As called for in the "American Homeownership and Economic Opportunity
Act of 2000", the Regulatory Barriers Clearinghouse is established
to collect, process, assemble and disseminate information on the
barriers faced in the creation and maintenance of affordable housing.
The Clearinghouse is hosted by HUD USER, the primary source for
Federal Government reports and information on housing policy and
programs, building technology, economic development, urban planning,
and other housing-related topics.
Please submit your experiences to the
Regulatory Barriers Clearinghouse.
