  2. Section 3: Proposed Rule

  3. Section 3 Section 3 is a provision of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968: • To ensure that jobs, training and contracting generated by HUD funding shall, to the greatest extent feasible, be directed to low- and very low-income persons, particularly those who are recipients of government assistance for housing, and to business concerns that substantially employ those persons.

  6. Key changes to Section 3(con’t) Key Changes Continued: • Identifying “Targeted Section 3 Workers”. • Setting initial benchmarks (see Benchmarks). • Modifying the outcome benchmarks over time. • Using qualitative reports to measure efforts if outcomes are inadequate. and • Integrating Section 3 into program enforcement. https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=HUD-2019-0019-0001  Proposed Rule FR-6085-P-01 https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=HUD-2019-0020-0001 Benchmarks6085- FR-6085-N-02
