Homelessness prevention and system performance measures

Summary

The report discusses the development of seven system-level performance measures by HUD to help communities gauge their progress in preventing and ending homelessness. These measures assess factors such as the length of time persons remain homeless, the number of homeless persons, and successful housing placement. The data from these measures will be used by HUD as selection criteria for awarding projects under future NOFAs and by communities to evaluate and improve their performance. The measures provide a comprehensive picture of system performance and help identify areas for improvement.
