The Performance Reporting IMPACT Tool is Here!

In 2025, OVW, in collaboration with MEI, launched the Indicators * Measurements * Performance * Achievements * Challenges * Technical Assistance Tool (IMPACT Tool). The IMPACT Tool is a web-based tool that all OVW Discretionary grantees and Formula Subgrantees use to prepare their performance data for submission to OVW. Its purpose is to simplify reporting and alleviate undue burden on grantees while generating better, timely, and more accurate information on how grantees use their funds.

Discretionary Programs

Discretionary grantees are required to use the VAWA IMPACT Tool to complete their semi-annual performance reports. The January to June 2025 performance reports are due July 30th, 2025. Grantees will receive notification at the beginning of July 2025 about how to access the IMPACT Tool for reporting of JJ25 data.
