    (a) Each program for which grants are made under this subchapter 
shall provide for a thorough evaluation of the effectiveness of the 
program in achieving its purposes, which evaluation shall be conducted 
by such public or private organizations as the Secretary in consultation 
with existing grantees familiar with programs carried out under the

designate, and all or part of the costs of evaluation may be paid from 
funds appropriated to carry out this part. In evaluating the performance 
of any community development corporation funded under part A of this

objectives, goals, and priorities as are consistent with the purposes of 
this subchapter and were set forth by such community development 
corporation in its proposal for funding as approved and agreed upon by 
or as subsequently modified from time to time by mutual agreement 
between the Secretary and such community development corporation.
    (b) The Secretary shall conduct, either directly or through grants 
or other arrangements, research and demonstration projects designed to 
suggest new programs and policies to achieve the purposes of this 
subchapter in such ways as to provide opportunities for employment, 
ownership, and a better quality of life for low-income residents.
