Guide to Preparing an Annual Progress Report

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Office of Community Planning and Development San Francisco Regional Office and HomeBase, have prepared a “Guide to Preparing an Annual Progress Report” for use by HUD Continuum of Care Homeless Assistance grant recipients. With high data quality, the Annual Progress Report (APR) can be an effective management tool for homeless housing and service providers to evaluate participant demographics, program design, and service needs.  The information that homeless grantees and sponsors provide in the APR is useful for HUD and Congress to assess outcomes from federal funding.

The guide is helpful for persons who are completing an APR for the first time or for someone who would like clarification on a specific APR question.  In the guide, each APR question is explained, terms are defined, examples are provided, time sensitive issues are flagged, tips to avoid common mistakes are suggested, and reminders are included to ensure correct numeric calculations. 

Choose the guide appropriate for your program, depending on the type of homeless grant activity funded:

Guide 1:  Supportive Housing Program (SHP) Permanent Housing, Transitional Housing, Safe Havens


Guide 2:  SHP Supportive Services Only Projects


Guide 3:  SHP Homeless Management Information (HMIS) Dedicated Projects


Guide 4:  SHP Development Only:  Acquisition, Construction, Rehabilitation


Guide 5:  Shelter Plus Care


Guide 6:  Section 8 Single Room Occupancy (SRO) Moderate Rehabilitation

You may read and/or print the guide(s) that will be beneficial for you.  HUD plans to revise the Annual Progress Report in the upcoming year, and there will be a specified timeframe before the new APR is required.  When HUD revises the APR, our office will provide detailed information on the revisions and we may also update these guides for your use.

If you have any questions regarding this guide, please contact your Community Planning and Development Representative.
