Transformation Initiatives

In HUD's Fiscal Year 2010 Appropriations Act, Congress enacted the Transformation Initiative (TI), which made up to one percent of program funds available for (1) research, evaluation, and program metrics; (2) program demonstrations; (3) technical assistance; and (4) information technology. PD&R plays two roles in the Transformation Initiative, administering the research and demonstrations and serving as the technical lead Department-wide on technical assistance projects. In Fiscal Year 2014, the Congress continues to fund HUD’s Transformation Initiative, including “not less” than $15 million for research with the remainder for HUD-wide Technical Assistance.
