restricted report upon initial entry

Only Designated Staff at post will be able to enter these reports

SSC, SSC Backup, PCMO
Only Designated Staff at post and select individuals at HQ will
receive email notifications of restricted sexual assault reports
or be able to see/search them in the CIRS dashboard

Additional questions added to CIRS
More options for who the Volunteer may have reported a crime
to (OIG, OCRD, Local Authorities, Law Enforcement)

Restricted Reporting

Victim-Based Reporting
Current CIRS reports incidents, with multiple

Volunteer victims included together in one incident

report
CIRS 3.2 will require that each victim in an incident
receive a separate incident report

Reports will be linked by an Umbrella ID

Will allow better integration with other Agency records,
including (possible) future integration with OHS and VIDA

Victim-Based Reporting: Implications

More incidents
The total number of reports will increase in 2012, this type of
reporting would have resulted in approximately 200 additional
reports
More reports
This past year, some posts have reported incidents involving
20+ Volunteers each Volunteer will have to be entered
separately in the future

Multiple Victims

New Classifications
Changing:
Sexual assaults
Major Sexual Assault = Aggravated Sexual Assault
Other Sexual Assault = Sexual Assault

Physical Assaults
Aggravated Assault + Major Physical Assault = Aggravated Assault
Other Physical Assault = Physical Assault

New Classifications
Going Away
Burglary with Assault
Only Burglary - No Assault will remain, renamed to Burglary
If an assault occurs in conjunction with a burglary, the incident
will be classified as a higher item on the severity hierarchy
Previously reported Burglary with Assault will be reclassified as
Other Physical and Sexual Assaults

New Classifications
Stalking
A whole new type of incident, since a stalking incident is
actually a collection of other incidents/events
Similar to related incidents with multiple victims, the
incidents/events in a stalking will be tied to one another
through a common ID
Each incident in a stalking must be entered separately

with any body part or object, or oral penetration by a sex organ
