This information is protected by federal privacy laws and state confidentiality requirements.
G. The Contractor assures that it will maintain appropriate programmatic and financial records that fu
disclose the amount and disposition of VOCA and match funds received. This includes financ
documentation for disbursements; daily time and attendance records specifying time devoted to t
VOCA project; client files; the portion of the project supplied by other sources; and other records wh
will facilitate an effective audit.
•
Agreement Period
The project must be operational within sixty (60) days of the original starting date of the agreement period.
The Contractor must submit documentation to the Crime Victim Services Commission explaining the reasons
for any delay, the steps taken to initiate the project, and the expected starting date. If the project is not
operational within ninety (90) days of the original starting date of the agreement period, the Contractor must
submit further documentation explaining the delay. The Crime Victim Services Commission may at this time
cancel the project, or extend the implementation date.
VIII. Amendments
A. The Contractor assures that it will on a timely basis notify the Crime Victim Services Commission of
any changes which require the use of a Contract Adjustment Request form (CVA-304R). This form
requires that the Contractor briefly outline: 1) reason for the amendment, 2) budget changes, 3)
changes in grant funded staff, 4) changes in grant contract personnel, and 5) changes in project
address or changes in scope of the programmatic activities or purpose of the project, including delay in
, grant implementation.
B. Any changes to the agreement will be valid only if made in writing and accepted by all parties to the
agreement.
IX. Indemnification
Prior to the implementation of the agreement, employees of the non-profit organizations who handle Victims of
Crime Act monies/match or certify Victims of Crime Act expenses will have security bonds in an amount equal
to, or more than, the total dollars awarded under this Agreement.
X. Confidentiality
A. The Contractor will establish procedures to ensure Confidentiality of Research Information. Except as
otherwise provided by Federal law, no recipient of monies under VOCA shall use or reveal any
research or statistical information furnished under this program by any person, and identifiable to any
specific private person, for any purpose other than the purpose for which such information was
obtained, in accordance with VOCA. Such information, and any copy of such information," shall be
immune from legal process and shall not, without the consent of the person furnishing such
information, be admitted as evidence or used for any purpose in any action, suit, or other judicial,
legislative, or administrative proceeding. (See Section 1407(d) of VOCA, codified at 42 U.S.C. 10604.)
B. This provision is intended, among other things, to assure the confidentiality of information provided by
crime victims to counselors working for victim services programs receiving VOCA funds. Whatever the
scope of application given this provision, it is clear that there is nothing in VOCA or its legislative
history to indicate that Congress intended to override or repeal, in effect, a State's existing law
governing the disclosure of information, which is supPortive of VOCA's fundamental goal of helping
crime victims. For example, this provision would not act to override or repeal, in effect, a State's
existing law pertaining to the mandatory reporting of suspected child abuse. See Pennhurst State
School and Hospital v. Halderman, et al., 451 U.S. 1(1981). Furthermore, this confidentiality provision
should not be interpreted to thwart the legitimate informational needs of public agencies. For example,
this provision does not prohibit a domestic violence shelter from acknowledging, in response to an
inquiry by a law enforcement agency conducting a missing person investigation, that the person is safe
in the shelter. Similarly, this provision does not prohibit access to a victim service, project by a Federal
or State agency seeking to determine whether Federal and State funds are being utilized in
accordance with funding agreements.
