Welcome to the Survey of Sexual Victimization. As you may know, the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) is tasked with annual data collection responsibilities under PREA. The Act requires BJS to "carry out, for each calendar year, a comprehensive statistical review and analysis of the incidence and effects of prison rape." In completing this task, BJS collects information on the characteristics of these incidents to aid correctional administrators in addressing the prevention, reporting, investigation, and prosecution of such incidents. We hope that you will take the time to complete this survey.
Please note: sessions will expire (requiring you to log back in) after 20 minutes of inactivity. Any unsaved data will be lost.
