INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING QUARTERLY PROGRESS REPORT
OVERVIEW
By completing this form each quarter, you build a solid source of documentation for your program's processes and accomplishments. It gives you history of how your program has changed and what you have learned in the process. The information collected will help you with your own organization's program planning and future grant initiatives.
The Quarterly Report:
Page 1 requests your organization name and reporting period.
Page 2 requests “fill-in-the-blank" data related to program activities.
Page 3 consists of open-ended questions to let us know how much progress you have made on auto theft program activities, the roadblocks encountered, and results you are achieving.
Page Two:Auto Theft Data
We believe that it will be difficult for you to isolate the data related specifically to grant funded activities. For that reason, we will ask you to report on the “universe” of auto theft related data for your entire jurisdiction.
Page Three: Narrative
The last type of information requested is written information describing the progress made so far on the project activities and goals that were submitted as a part of your grant application, roadblocks encountered and other information helpful in gauging your program's impact this quarter. Do not answer these questions on the form provided to you. Use separate pages and attach them to the report. If a question is not appropriate for a certain quarter, please indicate that on the form. If you have any other information (reports, press releases, correspondence, etc.) that you feel would help us in evaluating your efforts, please feel free to attach it.
