a single report that reflects all information collected from grant partners.

subsections A1 and C1 of this form must be completed by all grantees. In subsections A2 and C2-C3,
grantees must answer an initial question about whether they engaged in certain activities during the
current reporting period. If the response is yes, then the grantee must complete that section/subsection.
If the response is no, the rest of that section/subsection is skipped.
For example, if you are an agency providing victim services and policy development, you would complete
A1, A2, B, C1, C2, D, and E (and answer ‘no’ in C3 if you are not funded to develop or revise products).
The activities of volunteers or interns should be reported if they were coordinated or supervised by SASP
Culturally Specific Program-funded staff or if SASP Culturally Specific Program funds substantially
supported their activities.

VICTIM SERVICES

All grantees must complete this section.
16. Number of primary victims/survivors of sexual assault served, partially served, and victims/survivors
seeking services who were not served.
Please do not answer this question without referring to the separate instructions for further explanation
and examples of how to distinguish among these categories. (Report the following, to the best of your
ability, as an unduplicated count for each category during the current reporting period. This means that
each victim/survivor who was seeking or who received services during the current reporting period
should be counted only once in that reporting period. For purposes of this question, victims/survivors
are those against whom the sexual assault was directed. Do not report secondary victims here.)
Primary victims/survivors of sexual assault

TOTAL

A. Served: Victims/survivors who received the service(s) they requested, if
those services were funded by your SASP Culturally Specific Program grant
B. Partially served: Victims/survivors who received some service(s), but not
all of the services they requested, if those services were funded by your SASP
Culturally Specific Program grant
TOTAL SERVED and PARTIALLY SERVED (16A + 16B)

0

C. Victims/survivors seeking services who were not served: Victims/survivors who sought services and did not receive the service(s) they were seeking,
if those services were funded by your SASP Culturally Specific Program grant
17. Number of secondary victims served
Please do not answer this question without referring to the separate instructions for further explanation
and for examples of how and when to report secondary victims. (Report the following, to the best of
your ability, as an unduplicated count for each category during the current reporting period. This means
that each secondary victim who received services during the current reporting period should be
counted only once. For purposes of this question, secondary victims are those who are collaterally
affected by the victimization - e.g., children, siblings, spouses or intimate partners, grandparents, other
affected relatives, friends, neighbors, etc. - except for the perpetrator of such victimization. Secondary
victims do not need to be connected with a primary victim who is receiving services.)

Hotline calls/information and referral
Report the number of hotline calls and requests for information and referral received from primary
victims/survivors, and the total number of hotline calls received, on phone lines paid for with SASP
Culturally Specific Program funds or answered by SASP Culturally Specific Program-funded staff,
during the current reporting period. Also report the specific languages (other than English) used when
responding to these requests for information or assistance. Primary victims whose calls are reported
here should not be reported as victims served in question 16 unless they also received at least one of
the services listed in question 21A, Victim Services. Victims/survivors who receive services such as
crisis intervention or victim advocacy over the telephone, in addition to basic hotline information and/
or referrals, should also be reported in question 21A. Hotline calls that include victim advocacy or
crisis intervention services are those that require more time than the average call and involve a more
intensive focus on the immediate needs and situation of the victim. For examples of when to report
only the hotline call and when to report both the hotline call and a service or services in question 21A,
see separate instructions.)

(Optional) Additional information
(Use the space below to discuss the effectiveness of victim services funded or supported by your SASP
Culturally Specific Program grant and to provide any additional information you would like to share
about your victim services activities beyond what you have provided in the data above. An example
might include that your agency, as a result of SASP Culturally Specific Program funding, was able to
provide culturally appropriate medical accompaniment to an increased percentage of sexual assault
survivors. This resulted in a higher percentage of survivors from the population you serve also seeking
additional support services.) (Maximum 2,000 characters)
