Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Revisions to a currently approved
collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection:
Semiannual Progress Report for the
Improving Criminal Justice Responses to
Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence,
Dating Violence, and Stalking Grant
Program.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and

(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: The affected public includes
200 grantees from the Improving
Criminal Justice Responses to Sexual
Assault, Domestic Violence, Dating
Violence, and Stalking Grant Program
(ICJR Program) (also known as Grants to
Encourage Arrest Policies and
Enforcement of Protection Orders)
which encourages state, local, and tribal
governments and state, local, and tribal
courts to treat domestic violence, dating
violence, sexual assault, and stalking as
serious violations of criminal law
requiring the coordinated involvement
of the entire criminal justice system.
Eligible applicants are states and
territories, units of local government,
Indian tribal governments, coalitions,
victim service providers and state, local,
tribal, and territorial courts.
OVW is proposing revisions to the
progress reporting form to reflect
statutory changes as a result of the

justice system to immigrant victims;

burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The total annual hour burden

the 56 STOP state administrators (from
50 states, the District of Columbia and
five territories and commonwealths
(Guam, Puerto Rico, American Samoa,
Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana
Islands)) and their subgrantees. The
STOP Violence Against Women
Formula Grants Program was authorized
through the Violence Against Women
Act of 1994 (VAWA) and reauthorized
and amended by the Violence Against
Women Acts of 2000, 2005 and 2013. Its
purpose is to promote a coordinated,
multi-disciplinary approach to
improving the criminal justice system’s
response to violence against women.
The STOP Formula Grants Program
envisions a partnership among law
enforcement, prosecution, courts, and
victim advocacy organizations to
enhance victim safety and hold
offenders accountable for their crimes of
violence against women. OVW
administers the STOP Formula Grants
Program. The grant funds must be
distributed by STOP state
administrators to subgrantees according
to a statutory formula.
OVW is proposing revisions to the
progress reporting form to reflect
statutory changes as a result of the
reauthorization of VAWA grant
programs in 2013 which added seven
new purpose areas: Developing and
promoting legislation and policies to
enhance best practices for responding to
domestic violence, dating violence,
sexual assault, and stalking; Developing
Sexual Assault Response Teams and
related coordinated community
responses to sexual assault; improving
investigation and prosecution of sexual
assault cases and appropriate treatment
of victims; responding to sexual assault
against men, women, and youth in
correctional settings; responding to
backlogs of sexual assault evidence
including developing protocols and
policies for notifying and involving
victims; improving responses to male
and female victims whose ability to
access traditional services and
responses is affected by their sexual
orientation or gender identity; and
supporting prevention or educational
programming (limited to five percent of
the award amount). The reauthorization
also ensured that domestic violence,
dating violence, sexual assault, and
stalking are included in all the statutory
purpose areas and added legal
assistance in purpose area for ‘‘victim
assistance’’.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond/reply: It is estimated that it will
take the 56 respondents (STOP
administrators) approximately one hour

to complete an annual progress report.
It is estimated that it will take
approximately one hour for roughly
2500 subgrantees 1 to complete the
relevant portion of the annual progress
report. The Annual Progress Report for
the STOP Formula Grants Program is
divided into sections that pertain to the
different types of activities that
subgrantees may engage in and the
different types of subgrantees that
receive funds, i.e. law enforcement
agencies, prosecutors’ offices, courts,
victim services agencies, etc.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The total annual hour burden
to complete the annual progress report
is 2,556 hours.
