Webinar on the COVID-19 HUD Waivers for PIH Programs

Description

On Friday HUD’s Office of Public and Indian Housing (PIH) issued Notice PIH 2020-05 to waive and establish COVID-19-related alternative requirements for multiple statutory and regulatory requirements for the public housing program, the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program, and other Indian housing programs. For the public housing and HCV programs, use of the waivers is at the PHA’s discretion, although HUD strongly encourages PHAs to utilize any and all waivers and alternative requirements as necessary in order to keep the programs operational to the extent possible. This webinar will give an overview of the waivers issued as part of this notice.
