The Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) Program is one of the tools HUD uses to address deferred capital needs. It preserves at risk Public Housing and legacy properties by financing capital needs through conversion to long-term Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments (HAP) contracts. In this workshop we will briefly discuss best practices and lessons learned from the conversion of projects using the 1st and 2nd Component of RAD and delve into the experience of using RAD in two localities: Monterey and San Francisco. This workshop will be an opportunity for prospective RAD applicants and their development teams to learn from those who have already embarked on the process.
