CY

Children and Youth & Engaging Men and Youth Program

The Children and Youth & Engaging Men and Youth Programs create a unique opportunity for communities to increase collaboration among non-profit victim service providers, violence prevention programs, and child and youth organizations serving victims ages 0-24. Additionally, it supports organizations and programs that promote boys’ and men’s role in combating violence against women and girls.

January to June 2025 Reporting Period Updates

As of July 1, 2025, the IMPACT Tool is open for grantees to prepare their January to June 2025 (JJ25) performance reporting data for submission to OVW. Completed reports are due in JustGrants by July 30th, 2025. As a reminder, PDFs must be submitted in JustGrants to complete mandatory reporting requirements.

Training Opportunities

In July 2025, VAWA MEI will hold several live webinars to refresh your knowledge and orient new grantees to Performance Reporting in the IMPACT Tool. Please register for a live webinar on our Training page! Current training videos are also available on demand below.

How will grantees use the IMPACT Tool to report their data?

Beginning July 1, 2025, grantees will be able to access the tool via a URL for a blank performance report. These URLs will be posted to the VAWA MEI website and sent to grantees by OVW. Once you start a report, a new, unique URL will be generated, which will be emailed to you and will also be available to copy from the site itself. Please remember to save this unique URL so you can return to your report later.

When the report is validated and complete, the tool generates a PDF for grantees to download and submit as an attachment in the JustGrants system (JGS) by the July 30, 2025, reporting deadline. The PDF in JGS is the official record of the performance report. For guidance on how to upload the performance report as an attachment in JustGrants, please see the JustGrants website’s Training: Performance Reporting page.
