IX. Number of New and Carry Over Victims

This section records the number of victims (new and carry-over) that received each of the listed services in the current quarter. Services will be provided at the request of a victim, or when a staff person makes a determination that services would be beneficial to the victim.

(In this section, count the number of victims who received a specific service; therefore, count the victim the first time a particular service is provided. A service may be provided more than once to the victim, but once the victim is counted, do not count the victim for that particular service again.)

An ® before or after the service objective indicates that the service is required by Virginia’s Crime Victim and Witness Rights’ Act.

For a description of victim service objectives, please refer to page 14 (OVC Required Service Objectives- Victims).

Annual Victim Target: every quarterly report should indicate the number of victims receiving services for that particular quarter, for the year to date, as well as the annual target.

The annual target refers to the number of direct service victims the program anticipates serving during the current grant year by each service objective. These targets are submitted with the grant application. Transfer these numbers from the program’s approved grant application. They should be entered into CIMS during the first quarter and should not be changed throughout the fiscal year.
