2 W HAT IS C OMMUNITY E NGAGEMENT ? Community engagement activities include: public awareness, organizational development or capacity building, development of knowledge, skills, and abilities or training, and community collaborations.

3 I NFORMATION C OLLECTED ON THE C OMMUNITY E NGAGEMENT F ORM The Community Engagement Form is divided into 4 sections: o Information about Activity/Event o Information about Participants o Materials Distributed and Media Coverage o Evaluation/Outcomes/Outputs When services are provided that have been funded by V-STOP or Victim Fund, advocates may complete VSTOP or VFUND supplements.

4 I NFORMATION R EQUIRED TO S UBMIT F ORM Data required in order to submit form: Date of Event Staff Name Locality Primary Purpose of Activity Total Number of Participants (on the 2 nd page) There are A LOT of data on this form, but this is all that is required!

5 ‘I NFORMATION A BOUT A CTIVITY /E VENT ’ S ECTION Funding Source is OPTIONAL. If a funding source is selected, then you will have the option to generate a report based only on the activities funded by a particular source. NOTE: You will still be able to generate a report about ALL of your activities! “Other Funding-1” and “Other Funding -2” can be used by agencies to track up to two additional funding sources that are relevant to their agency (for example, a local community grant). When VSTOP or Victim Fund is selected as a funding source, a VSTOP or Victim Fund supplement will be provided so that you can collect more detailed data on training activities and generate a report for VSTOP and Victim Fund Training Activities (see slide 10 & 11).

6 ‘I NFORMATION A BOUT A CTIVITY /E VENT ’ S ECTION Primary Purpose of Activity – you will need to select ONE and only ONE – choose the option that best fits the activity Type of Activity – you can choose as many that apply. Note: The activity chosen will drive the section in the report in which the data will be included. Topic or Focus of Activity – select all that apply ‘Did the activity focus on improving services or prevention activities for underserved populations?’ – please select YES if appropriate, and identify the population(s)

7 In this section, Total Number of Participants is the most significant data element. We encourage you to include this info as often as possible. Gender, Race/Ethnicity, and Setting – will be most significant when the activity is related to Presentations/Educational Programs. Profession/Role of Participants – will be most significant when the activity is related to Professional Training. ‘I NFORMATION A BOUT P ARTICIPANTS ’ S ECTION

8 In the Information About Activity text box, you may enter information your agency wishes to collect. This information is not required, but you may wish to enter specific information such as the title of the presentation or its specific location

9 ‘M ATERIALS D ISTRIBUTED AND M EDIA C OVERAGE ’ S ECTION Please include the total number of resources distributed. In the Breakdown section, you can list the same resources more than once if they are described in multiple categories. For example, you might have a brochure about Sexual Violence that is for Children and is written in Spanish.

10 ‘M ATERIALS D ISTRIBUTED AND M EDIA C OVERAGE ’ S ECTION The Media Coverage section covers radio, TV, print, and social media (Facebook, Twitter, blogs, etc).

11 ‘E VALUATION /O UTCOMES /O UTPUTS ’ S ECTION The Training and Presentation/Education Outcomes are included as options for you. We hope that SDVAs across Virginia will begin to report these outcomes so that we can provide a statewide picture of the impact of sexual and domestic violence services. Please note that in the Community Collaboration Outcomes section, we offer you the opportunity to email us any new policies/protocols/resources that you have developed so that we can include them in our library. This is, of course, OPTIONAL.

12 VSTOP & V ICTIM F UND S UPPLEMENTS VSTOP and Victim Fund grantees are required to report detailed information about the people trained and the content of the training. If a training activity is funded by VSTOP and/or Victim Fund, agencies can complete the appropriate supplement to record data for their report(s). For example, if your VSTOP grant supports the training activity, you would complete the VSTOP supplement. If you do not receive VSTOP or Victim Fund grants for training activities, you can ignore these supplements.

13 R EPORTS Data from the Community Engagement Report are compiled for you in the Community Engagement Report. Community Engagement data are also included in your VDSS Domestic Violence Program Report and other funder reports as requested by funders. Any VSTOP and/or Victim Fund training activities recorded on the Community Engagement Form will be compiled and included in your VSTOP and Victim Fund VAdata reports. You will also be able to compile a report based on funding source.

16 C OMMENTS AND S UGGESTIONS This is a great place to make a suggestion or request support that does not need immediate attention. If you need immediate attention, please give us a call. Often we will need additional information from you, so a call is usually more expedient than an email.

17 HELP! VA DATA ’ S NOT WORKING. If you think something is wrong with VAdata, please let us know! Give us a call at 804.377.0335 We don’t use VAdata every day (like you do), so sometimes the only way that we know something is broken is when you tell us. We also like to talk with you by phone when you have questions, because we usually want information that you might not know we need.

18 V ADATA ’ S W ORKING B UT I S TILL N EED H ELP ! W HO DO I CONTACT ? Please contact your assigned SDVA liaison at 804.377.0335 If they are unable to respond to your immediate concern, they will contact the VAdata staff for support.
