DCHA Moving to Work (MTW)

Moving to Work (MTW) 

DCHA has participated in the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Moving to Work (MTW) Program since 2003. As an MTW agency, DCHA has regulatory and funding flexibility to develop locally driven strategies to encourage resident self-sufficiency; achieve efficiencies and cost savings in programs and operations; and increase housing options for low-income residents. The MTW program provides DCHA with the flexibility to combine funding and adapt policies to best serve our community’s unique needs. 

DCHA signed its original MTW Agreement with HUD in 2003 and is one of the 39 Initial MTW Agencies across the country. As a result of Congress passing the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016, DCHA’s MTW Agreement was modified and extended to the end of its Fiscal Year 2028. More information about DCHA’s participation in the MTW program can be found on HUD’s website, including links to past annual Plans, Reports and Agreements.  

Annual Plans 

Each year DCHA adopts a plan that describes activities planned for the following fiscal year. The MTW Annual Plan requires a public comment process and is due to HUD 75 days prior to the start of the upcoming fiscal year. The annual plan includes required information on planned operations and activities for the fiscal year, including proposed new MTW activities that require HUD approval for the upcoming fiscal year.  

Annual Reports 

Each year DCHA prepares a report describing the work accomplished during the past fiscal year. The MTW Annual Report is due to HUD 90 days after the start of the next fiscal year. The annual report includes information on actual activities during the fiscal year, including operations and activities that require the use of MTW flexibilities. The report is submitted to HUD and made publicly available after HUD approves the report.
