2021 Section 3 Final Rule Training Series - Office Hours: PHA - Session 6

Section 3 is a provision of the HUD Act of 1968 that promotes local economic development, neighborhood economic improvement, and individual self-sufficiency. To the greatest extent possible, Section 3 requires that recipients of certain HUD financial assistance provide job training and employment opportunities to low- or very low-income residents in connection with projects and activities in their neighborhoods.

Effective November 30, 2020, the new Section 3 Final Rule is designed to improve a focus on economic opportunity outcomes while simultaneously reducing the regulatory burden on those entities that receive those funds.

Do you have unanswered questions on HUD’s Section 3 Final Rule? Still not sure how to implement the requirements of the Section 3 Rule compliantly into your programs? Office Hours are now available to help support HUD housing and community development (HCD) and public housing authority (PHA) financial assistance recipients.

Section 3 Final Rule participants will:

• Have an opportunity to ask unanswered questions
• Learn more about implementing the requirements of the Section 3 Final Rule

Who Should Attend?

The office hours are intended for PHA financial assistance recipients only. If you are an HCD financial assistance recipient, please register for a different session. Please note: Office Hours cannot accommodate HUD staff or consultants at this time.
