The National Victimization Statistical Support Program (NVSSP) project is designed to:
(1) provide scientific and technical support for statistical and methodological research, statistical analyses, documentation, and dissemination in support of BJS's efforts related to the redesign of its National
Criminal Victimization Survey (NCVS); (2) enhance BJS's statistical reporting program from the NCVS and other federal data on criminal victimization; and (3) support BJS efforts to use the NCVS to inform its future decisions about the design and content of its victimization statistics program.
The goal is to increase the breadth of substantive issues that are addressed with the NCVS, both in the short-run and longer-term.
