    Title of Proposal: HUD Stakeholder Survey.
    OMB Control Number, if applicable: 2501-New.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The 
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) hosts events with a 
variety of groups nationwide designed to educate stakeholders about HUD 
initiatives and policies. This data collection consists of a brief, 
optional survey to be completed in person at the end of each event. The 
information produced by the stakeholder surveys will allow HUD to 
measure the effectiveness of the stakeholder sessions and collect 
feedback on policy initiatives. The information can be used to shape 
policies, improve stakeholder events and make better use of HUD's 
limited time with stakeholders. There are no similar surveys which 
allow for HUD to engage in a sustained, systematic collection of 
feedback from stakeholders on of a broad range of HUD initiatives and 
events.
    Agency form numbers, if applicable: None.
    Members of Affected Public: Stakeholder groups include (but are not 
limited to) public housing authorities, congressional members and 
staff, local government officials, assisted housing residents, HUD 
grantees, civil rights organizations, homeless advocacy organizations, 
the legal community, academics, organized labor representatives, HUD 
grantees, and members of the housing, nonprofit, philanthropic, 
business and faith-based sectors.
    Estimation of the total number of hours needed to prepare the 
information collection including number of respondents, frequency of 
response, and hours of response:
    Frequency of Submission: On occasion.
