Summary

AI summary — grounded in the notice text

This HUD notice updates the Community Choice Demonstration (formerly the HCV Mobility Demonstration) by canceling the SMRS treatment arm, moving up the study enrollment end date to June 30, 2026, and clarifying rules for recapturing and reallocating funding and Mobility Demonstration Vouchers (MDVs). PHA staff running CCD sites need this to understand new deadlines for enrollment, service delivery tracking, budget submissions, MDV recapture, and continued mobility-related services through the demonstration's October 1, 2028 statutory end date.
