Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989, this document
notifies the public of funding awards for the Fiscal Year 1995
Community Development Work Study Program (CDWSP). The purpose of this
document is to announce the names and addresses of the award winners
and the amount of the awards to be used to attract economically
disadvantaged and minority students to careers in community and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CDWSP is administered by the Office of
University Partnerships under the Assistant Secretary for Policy
Development and Research. The Office of University Partnerships
administers HUD's ongoing grant programs to institutions of higher
education and creates initiatives through which colleges and
universities can bring their traditional missions of teaching,
research, service, and outreach to bear on the pressing local problems
in their communities.
The CDWSP was enacted in the Housing and Community Development Act
of 1988. (Earlier versions of the program were funded by the Community
Development Block Grant Technical Assistance Program from 1982 through
1987 and the Comprehensive Planning Assistance Program from 1969
through 1981.) Eligible applicants include institutions of higher
education having qualifying academic degrees, and States and areawide
planning organizations who apply on behalf of such institutions. The
CDWSP provides funds for tuition support (up to $3,000 per year for an
undergraduate student and $3,500 per year for a graduate student), a
work stipend (up to $6,000 per year for an undergraduate and $9,000 for
a graduate student, for internship-type work in community development
and related fields), additional support (for books and travel related
to the academic program, up to $1,000 per year for an undergraduate
student and $1,500 per year for a graduate student), and an
administrative allowance (to grantees to offset some of the
administrative costs of the program, fixed at $1,000 per year for each
participating student). Each participating institution is funded for a
minimum of three students and a maximum of ten students under the
CDWSP.
On January 20, 1995, HUD published a Notice of Funding Availability
announcing the availability of $3 million in FY 1995 funds for the
CDWSP (60 FR 4338). The Department reviewed, evaluated and scored the
applications received based on the criteria in the NOFA. As a result,
HUD has funded the applications announced below, and in accordance with
Section 102(a)(4)(C) of the Department of Housing and Urban Development
Reform Act of 1989 (Pub. L. 101-235, approved December 15, 1989), the
Department is publishing details concerning the recipients of funding
