Presenters should speak for no more than 20 minutes, and discussants should limit their remarks to no more than 5 minutes. The remaining time should be reserved for audience questions and the presenter’s responses. We suggest following these guidelines also in the (less common) 3-paper sessions in a 2-hour slot, to allow participants to move between sessions. Discussants are encouraged to avoid summarizing the paper. By focusing on a few questions and comments, the discussants can help start a broader discussion with the audience.

Private Provision of Public Housing: Impacts on Targeting 1: New York University, United States of America; 2: Rutgers University, United States of America Housing assistance in the U.S. has shifted from public provision toward subsidized provision through private markets. This paper studies how private provision may affect targeting by examining conversions of public housing through the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD). RAD allows housing authorities to convert their public housing to project-based contracts in order to leverage financing for renovations, often accompanied by a transfer of ownership or management to private entities. We use nationwide administrative data on public housing tenants and a difference-in-differences design that leverages plausibly exogenous variation in the timing of conversions to study impacts of RAD on targeting between 2014 and 2023. We provide suggestive evidence that there is targeting of relatively lower-income residents at conversions with non-profit managers compared to for-profit managers, potentially through the channels of waitlist priorities for new admissions and self-selection of households moving out with vouchers rather than for-profit managers pursuing terminations.
