Survey of Sexual Victimization

OMB 1121-0292

The National Prison Rape Statistics Program (NPRSP) is a collection mandated by Congress in the Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003. The Survey of Sexual Victimization (SSV, formerly Survey of Sexual Violence), one part of the NPRSP, is the only national data collection for administrative information on sexual assaults within correctional facilities, characteristics of the victims and perpetrators, circumstances surrounding the incidents, and how incidents are reported, tracked, and adjudicated. This collection provides system-level and facility-level estimates of sexual victimization for the 12-month period ending December 31 of each year. It fulfills part of the Act and allows BJS to report statistics to Congress each year, as required by the Act. The survey received OMB approval in 2004, 2007, 2011, 2014 and 2017. BJS requests approval to extend the currently approved SSV collection for 3 years.
