Biannual Performance Reports

Bi-Annual Performance Reports

All grantees must complete Victim Assistance bi-annual performance reports. 

Grantees who use Empower DB will run their bi-annual performance report in the Empower DB system and then submit them in Iowa Department of Justice Grants.

Empower DB has an assortment of instructional videos illustrating data entry and how to navigate the system in their Database Documentation Section.

EmpowerDB activity definitions will be used by anyone completing required reports. This comprehensive listing of activities and their corresponding definitions is designed to assist those agencies using EmpowerDB; however, anyone can use these helpful definitions. 

The biannual reporting templates are here:
