“Clients” are the number of individual households counseled or educated. Multiple
individuals or family members with the same problem or need that receive counseling
together should be treated as an individual client. For example, a husband and wife or
brother and sister who are mortgagors under the same note count as one client.
Similarly, three renting families who experience the same problem with the same
landlord, are counseled together, and have the same resolution to the problem count as
one client.
Throughout this survey, where you see “housing education and counseling services”:
“education” refers to workshops or group sessions while “counseling” refers to one-onone
sessions with individuals.
