    The U.S. Department of Labor's Veterans’ Employment and Training Service (VETS) outlines application requirements for the Homeless Veterans' Reintegration Program (HVRP) in this OMB Control form (1293-0014). The document includes a structured process for applicants to disclose their past grant or cooperative agreement award history, specifically focusing on HVRP and other awards. Organizations must categorize their award history, selecting options ranging from no past grant history to having received multiple HVRP grants. Further sections require details on HVRP awards, including grant numbers and periods of performance. Applicants with award histories from other entities are also prompted to indicate their experience and past performance indicators, such as grant terminations and high-risk designations. Points for past performance are scored based on these disclosures and specific criteria set by the DOL, impacting the funding decision. The overall goal is to assess the eligibility and reliability of applicants seeking to assist homeless veterans through the HVRP, ensuring they meet necessary qualifications while providing a clear framework for evaluation and scoring. The document serves as a vital tool in managing federal grant applications focused on veteran services.
