Program Overview

The STOP (Services, Training, Officers, and Prosecutors) Violence Against Women Formula Grants are awarded to states to develop and strengthen the criminal justice system’s response to violence against women and to support and enhance services for victims.

The IMPACT Tool for Subgrantee Reporting

Formula Administrators are required to submit subgrantee data directly to VAWA MEI via the IMPACT Tool. Calendar year 2025 subgrantee data will be due March 30, 2026. VAWA MEI will notify Formula Administrators when the IMPACT tool is ready for 2025 subgrantee data collection.

For calendar year 2025 data, Administrators will need to download their Administrator’s PDF form from this website (click on “STOP Formula Administrator Reporting Form” below) and submit their completed form as an attachment in JustGrants by March 30, 2026.

Access the resources below to learn how to use the IMPACT Tool.
