WASHINGTON, March 1, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- HUD's Office of Policy Development and Research (PD&R) is preparing to gather stakeholder input on new developments, emerging opportunities, and important gaps in housing and community development research to inform the development of a new Research Roadmap. HUD's Research Roadmap is an evidence-building plan that guides the department's research efforts to ensure a vigorous stream of research that can strengthen housing and community development policy, investments, and outcomes.

To launch this effort, PD&R is hosting the Shaping HUD's Research: Kickoff Event on Wednesday, March 20, 2019, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM Eastern Time. Please join PD&R to share your ideas and hear a distinguished panel of policy experts discuss research needs related to: HUD's public and assisted housing programs, economic opportunity and wellbeing, housing finance and homeownership, and strengthening communities.

Please register either to attend the event in person at HUD's Brooke-Mondale Auditorium or to view the webcast on the event page here: https://www.huduser.gov/portal/event/Research-Roadmap.html.
