About this file

This document is a Sample Narrative Template for Rating Factor 3 - Bonus Points for a federal grant application, specifically for the ROSS (Resident Opportunity and Self-Sufficiency) program. The template outlines three optional criteria through which applicants can earn up to 5 bonus points that will be added to their total score for Rating Factors 1 and 2.

The bonus point opportunities include: (1) Alignment of Match Contribution with Areas of Need (up to 3 points), which requires match partners to provide services or resources for each selected area of need as documented on the HUD-52768 Form; (2) Use of a Case Management System (up to 2 points), where applicants must provide details about their current case management software, including its name, acquisition year, staff access, and confirmation of use for the ROSS program. Applicants must provide specific information for each criterion to qualify for bonus points, and narrative responses will not be considered for scoring.

Applicant Legal Name______________________________

Are you a:

New Applicant

Renewal Applicant

Rating Factor 3 - Bonus Points (Optional for Renewal and New Applicants) You may earn up to 5 bonus points by responding to the optional criteria below. While a response is not required, any points awarded for this rating factor will be added to your total score for Rating Factors 1 and 2.

Alignment of Match contribution with Area(s) of Need (up to 3 points). To receive three bonus points, your match contributions must directly align with the areas of need selected in your application.

Specifically, each selected area of need must be supported by at least one match partner providing services or resources that address that need. If all selected areas of need have a corresponding match partner contribution clearly identified on the HUD-52768 Form, you will receive the full four bonus points. If any selected area of need is not supported by a match contribution, or match information on the HUD-52768 Form is not clear, you will receive zero bonus points for this criterion. Narrative responses will not be considered for criterion.

Use data to describe the results of the needs assessment (up to 2 Points). If your organization currently uses a case management system to support the delivery of supportive services, you may earn up to two bonus points. To qualify, you must provide the name of the case management software, the year you acquired the system, identify the staff who have access to the system, and confirm the system will be used to support the ROSS program. Only case management systems used to track supportive services will be considered for points. Failure to provide case management system information and confirming it will be used to support the ROSS program will result in no bonus points awarded for this criterion.
