This report summarizes the first-year experience of the Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation Program for Single Room Occupancy (SRO) Dwellings for Homeless Individuals (referred to in this report as the Section 8 SRO Program), as reported to HUD by the 21 Public Housing Authorities (PHAs) and the sponsors of the 30 projects funded in the first round of the program in FY 1988. The Office of Research monitored the program and, through calls to PHAs and project sponsors, collected information on a full range of issues, including tenant and project characteristics, developmental and operational costs and support services.
