Campus Program

The Campus Program strengthens the response of institutions of higher education to the crimes of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence and stalking on campuses and enhances collaboration among campuses, local law enforcement, and victim advocacy organizations.

Performance Reporting Update!

In 2025, OVW, in collaboration with MEI, will launch a web-based, performance reporting tool called the VAWA IMPACT Tool, the *Indicators *Measurements *Performance *Achievements *Challenges *Technical Assistance Tool. OVW Discretionary grantees will use the IMPACT Tool to prepare their performance data for submission to OVW, beginning with the July to December 2024 reporting period.

When will the tool be ready for grantees?

Due to this change in the performance reporting process, the due date for submitting July to December 2024 performance data into JustGrants will be extended two months from January 30, 2025, to March 31, 2025. Grantees will be able to access the VAWA IMPACT Tool by March 3, 2025.

How will grantees use the tool?

Discretionary grantees will be required to use the VAWA IMPACT Tool to complete their July to December 2024 performance report. The performance report data will first be entered by the grantee into an online, interactive performance reporting form in the VAWA IMPACT Tool. Once the report has been completed online, the tool will generate a PDF for the grantee to download and submit into JustGrants by the March 31, 2025, deadline.

Training Opportunities

For the 2025 summer, VAWA MEI will hold several live webinars to refresh your knowledge and orient new grantees to the IMPACT Tool and Performance Reporting in addition to the current training videos, and ongoing technical assistance via phone (1-800-922-8292), email (vawamei@maine.edu), and video conferencing.

This sample form includes an outline of all the questions on the performance report and all the data required for entry into the VAWA IMPACT Tool.
