‘‘SEC. 2. FINDINGS; PURPOSES.
‘‘(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds that—

conducted annually by the Bureau of Justice Statistics of the Department of Justice, does not specifically collect data relating to crimes against individuals with developmental disabilities;
‘‘(3) studies in Canada, Australia, and Great Britain
consistently show that victims with developmental
disabilities suffer repeated victimization because so
few of the crimes against them are reported, and even
when they are, there is sometimes a reluctance by police, prosecutors, and judges to rely on the testimony
of a disabled individual, making individuals with developmental disabilities a target for criminal predators;

to—
‘‘(A) understand the nature and extent of crimes
against individuals with developmental disabilities;
‘‘(B) describe the manner in which the justice system responds to crimes against individuals with developmental disabilities; and
‘‘(C) identify programs, policies, or laws that hold
promises for making the justice system more responsive to crimes against individuals with developmental disabilities; and
‘‘(5) the National Academy of Science Committee
on Law and Justice of the National Research Council
is a premier research institution with unique experience in developing seminal, multidisciplinary studies
to establish a strong research base from which to
make public policy.

‘‘(1) to increase public awareness of the plight of
victims of crime who are individuals with developmental disabilities;
‘‘(2) to collect data to measure the extent of the

this section shall address such issues as—

‘‘(2) the risk factors associated with victimization
