Reporting Requirements

ORR Services for Survivors of Torture Program grantees will be required to submit a reporting package. The first semi-annual report is due April 30, 2010. This package includes three forms:
1) ACF-OGM-SF-PPR Coversheet
2) ACF-OGM-SF-PPR Appendix B
3) ORR-ZT-SF-PPR-B

The ORR-ZT-SF-PPR-B is intended for grantees' use to collect performance information including the 17 demographic and output data points described under the Section IV.2. Content and Form of Application Submission/Program Description/Results or Benefits Expected of the program announcement.

Programs will enter and submit data using the Online Data Collection System (OLDC) which is a web-based system designed by and administered through ORR’s parent agency, the Administration for Children and Families. While grantees have the option to submit the reports in hard copy, use of OLDC for electronic submission is encouraged. Please note that OLDC does not used the HURIDOC codes for country, ethnicity or religion.

ORR Technical Assistance
In order to assist ORR-funded torture treatment agencies in providing the highest quality in services, ORR has funded two technical assistance grants to organizations with expertise in a particular area. Technical assistance providers can help in a number of ways, depending on the provider’s time and funding constraints and the recipient agency’s particular needs. 
1) National Capacity Building Project for Specialized Torture Treatment Centers
The Center for Victims of Torture offers national technical assistance through resources, training, and networking opportunities specifically targeted to specialized torture treatment centers.
2) National Partnership for Community Training for Immigrant Service Providers
Gulf Coast Jewish Family Services provides comprehensive community needs assessment and training in areas of the country where no torture treatment centers exist.
