| Program/Policy Description | The HOPE VI Residential Tracking study focuses on a single aspect of the HOPE VI experience: What has happened to original residents of eight HOPE VI properties since revitalization got under way and how their living situations have changed. The study examines the outcomes for original HOPE VI residents across a range of measures including physical environment, social environment, economic opportunity and physical health. The study includes some residents who have returned to the HOPE VI sites and some who are living in other locations, either as a temporary or permanent relocation. |
