(2) Title of the Form/Collection: Annual Progress Report for STOP Violence Against Women Formula Grant Program. (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form Number: 1122- 0003.

The STOP Violence Against Women Formula Grants Program was authorized through the Violence Against Women Act of 1994 (VAWA) and reauthorized and amended in 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 sub-grantees according to a statutory formula (as amended).

It is estimated that it will take approximately one hour for roughly 2500 sub-grantees \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 sub-grantees may engage in and the different types of subg-rantees that receive funds, i.e. law enforcement agencies, prosecutors' offices, courts, victim services agencies, etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ Each year the number of STOP subgrantees changes. The number 2,500 is based on the number of reports that OVW has received in the past from STOP subgrantees. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- (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.
