reporting period. For purposes of this question, victims/survivors are those against whom the sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and/or stalking was directed. If the victim/survivor experienced more than one
victimization, that person should be counted only once under the primary victimization. Do not report secondary
victims here.)

(Based on the victims/survivors reported in 33A and 33B, report the total numbers for all that apply. Because
victims/survivors may identify in more than one category of race/ethnicity, the total for Race/Ethnicity may
exceed the total number of victims/survivors reported in 33A and 33B. However, the total number of victims/
survivors reported under Race/ethnicity should not be less than the total number of victims/survivors reported
in 33A and 33B. The total number of victims/survivors reported under “Gender” and the total number reported
under “Age” should equal the total number of victims/survivors reported in 33A and 33B. Those victims for whom
gender, age, and/or race/ethnicity are not known should be reported in the “unknown” category. Do not report

37B. Shelter services

(Report the number of victims/survivors and accompanying family members who received emergency shelter
and/or transitional housing provided with Disability Program funds during the current reporting period. This
should be an unduplicated count for both victims/survivors and for family members. This means that each victim/survivor and each family member who received shelter services during the current reporting period should
be counted only once. Report the total number of bed nights provided in emergency shelter and/or transitional
housing to victims/survivors and family members. The number of bed nights is computed by multiplying the number of victims and family members by the number of nights they stayed in the shelter. The number of bed nights
will typically be significantly higher than the number of victims and family members. For example, one victim and
her three children all stayed in the shelter for 10 nights. The number of bed nights would be 4 x 10, or 40.)

or question 37B Shelter services. Victims/survivors who receive services such as crisis intervention or victim
advocacy over the telephone, in addition to basic hotline information and/or referrals, should also be reported
in question 37A. Hotline calls that include victim advocacy or crisis intervention services are those that require
more time than the average call and involve a more intensive focus on the immediate needs and situation of the
victim. For examples of when to report only the hotline call and when to report both the hotline call and a service
or services in question 37A, see separate instructions.)
