X. Training Activities

The goal of all training is to enhance services to crime victims.

Training Received: this section records the number of hours of skills training received by paid staff and volunteers. Compute the number of training hours by each staff person (i.e., if two staff persons attended an eight-hour workshop, the total number of training hours is 16).

Training Provided: this section also records training provided to others by victim/witness staff. Community education activities that are designed to identify crime victims, or to inform the public about available program services and how to obtain this assistance, are allowable. General public awareness efforts designed to raise the public’s consciousness of victims’ issues do not qualify as direct services to crime victims and are not to be included as training activities.
