STOP Program (STOP (Services • Training • Officers • Prosecutors) Violence Against Women Formula Grant Program) 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. Each state and territory must allocate 25 percent of the grant funds to law enforcement, 25 percent to prosecution, 5 percent to courts, and 30 percent to victim services. The remaining 15 percent is discretionary within the parameters of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). Grant awards are made to state governments, and interested tribes and organizations should contact their respective State Administrative Agency for information about obtaining funding from this program.

As a result of VAWA 2000, all grant recipients are now statutorily required to report on the effectiveness of their projects, and the Attorney General must now report to Congress on the effectiveness of each grant program. Therefore, grantees funded under the STOP Program must collect and maintain data that measures the success of the state’s current efforts to strengthen effective law enforcement and prosecution strategies and victim services in cases involving violent crimes against women. The state administrative agency is responsible for reporting annually to OVW on STOP subgrantees' program activities. This requirement is currently met through the Subgrantee Annual Progress reports.
