Operative Text

HUD HCV Guidebook § 2
Since 2008, HUD and VA have awarded HUD-VASH vouchers based on geographic need and PHA
administrative performance. The allocation process for HUD-VASH vouchers is a collaborative
approach between HUD and VA that relies on several key pieces of data including:

    •   VA’s Gap Analysis, which combines need data and availability of applicable resources. This
        data set uses:
           o HUD’s point-in-time data submitted by Continuums of Care (CoCs);
           o VA Medical Center (VAMC) data on the number of contacts with homeless veterans
    •   Performance data from PHAs
1 See 24 CFR § 5.105(a).
