Grant Description

The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) seeks an agent to implement the National Victimization Statistical Support Program (NVSSP) project. The NVSSP is designed to provide scientific and technical support for statistical and methodological research, statistical analyses, documentation, and dissemination in support of BJS•À_s efforts related to the redesign of its National Criminal Victimization Survey (NCVS); enhance BJS•À_s statistical reporting program from the NCVS and other federal data on criminal victimization; and supports BJS efforts to use the NCVS to inform its future decisions about the design and content of its victimization statistics program. Through this project, BJS seeks to expand its capacity to conduct analyses of the NCVS and other criminal victimization data and create technical documentation related to the survey•À_s collection process as a means of increasing the breadth of substantive issues that it addresses with the NCVS, both in the short-run and longer-term.
