The Philadelphia Housing Authority (PHA) is a participant in the
Moving to Work Demonstration Program (MTW). PHA was initially
selected to participate in the MTW Program in 2001. In October
2008, PHA entered into an Amended and Restated Moving to Work
Agreement (MTW Agreement) with the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD), which has subsequently been further
amended.
The MTW Agreement defines the terms and conditions under which
PHA is a participant in the MTW Program. The MTW Agreement requires
that PHA submit an MTW Annual Plan for HUD review and
approval. PHA is seeking public review and comments on the
proposed FY 2016
MTW Annual Plan. The Annual Plan describes PHA's MTW proposed
policy initiatives and activities for the period April 1, 2015 to
March 31, 2016. PHA is also soliciting public comments
on its Strategic Directions Plan which identifies strategic goals
and initiatives for the five year period beginning in 2015.
