HUD Permits Alternatives to Resident Meetings for RAD

Posted on September 23, 2020 by Bobbie Guidry

In a Notice issued Friday, HUD permits alternatives to group resident meetings required for the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD). For PHAs or owners undergoing a RAD conversion

, the Notice outlines criteria for any alternative approaches to resident engagement, including small group, individual resident, or virtual meetings. The authorizations are available to owners through the end of the national emergency, or through the end of the calendar year, whichever is later. To answer questions about the new Notice, HUD hosted a webinar—a summary of the webinar and more information is available here.
