{"product_id":"2940148259411","title":"Assessment of the 602 Non-Profit Disposition Program","description":"The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (KUD) contracted with \u003cbr\u003eOptimal Solutions Group, LLC and Abt Associates, Inc. to conduct evaluative research on a \u003cbr\u003enewly initiated iteration of the 602 Non-Profit Disposition Program (602 Program). The research \u003cbr\u003eis somewhat unusual, in that its primary thrust was to identify appropriate baseline information \u003cbr\u003eand an associated analytic structure for future evaluations of the 602 Program. In addition, the \u003cbr\u003ereport discusses the near-term progress of the 602 Program in three cities: Baltimore, Maryland; \u003cbr\u003eSalt Lake City, Utah; and Rochester, New York. \u003cbr\u003eHUD is committed to increasing homeownership among our nation's low- and moderate- \u003cbr\u003eincome families. In keeping with this goal, HUD' s 602 Nonprofit Property Disposition program \u003cbr\u003esells HUD-held single-family homes at deep discounts to units of general local government and \u003cbr\u003enonprofits. The homes are then rehabilitated and resold, providing homeownership opportunities \u003cbr\u003eto low- and moderate-income households, with the concomitant benefit of revitalizing \u003cbr\u003eeconomically troubled urban neighborhoods. \u003cbr\u003eWe in HUD's Office of Policy Development and Research (PD\u0026amp;R) hope that this report \u003cbr\u003ewill provide readers with a general understanding of the operations and potential benefits of the \u003cbr\u003e602 Program. We also hope that the evaluation strategy and accompanying description of the \u003cbr\u003eprospective statistical analysis will stimulate interest in HUD programs that foster and expand \u003cbr\u003ehomeownership, and will underscore PD\u0026amp;R's continuing efforts to study, document and \u003cbr\u003eimprove these programs.","brand":"ReadCycle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47108667736304,"sku":"2940148259411","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940148259411_p0.jpg?v=1763706712","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940148259411","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
