II. Summary of organization
In this section, we are trying to gain a general sense of your organization's activities, NOT solely
the program for which you are seeking VOCA funds.
1. Please provide a brief description of your entire organization, including details of different
units and staffing.
The Elgin Police Department has a total of 180 sworn officers and 92 civilian employees.
The organizational chart consists of 4 component: The Chief Of Police, Operations,
Investigations, &Administration.
--Chief of Police and the Deputy Chief and adminstration assistants are at the top of the chart.
They handle planning and research, budget, payroll, internal compliance and training. The
remaining 3 units report to the Chief of Police.
-- Operations, headed by the Operations Commander, consists of three patrol shifts, crisis
negotiation, tactical response, and communications (dispatch).
-- Investigations,headed by the Investigations Commander, handles both adult and juvenile
crime investigations and includes gang and narcotic crimes. This unit also includes technical
services, records and evidence, and social services (also known as Victims Services).
--Administration,headed by the Administrations Commander, provides administration support,
adjudication, media relations, traffic and parking law enforcement, crossing guards, special
events, court liaisons,jail, asset management, facility management, and the information desk.
Elgin is centered along the banks of the Fox River, and is located approximately 38 miles
northwest of Chicago. Community-oriented policing has been the Elgin Police Department's
mode of operation for 20 years. Community-oriented policing involves a collaborative effort
among police officers and citizens to lessen crime and to change conditions that contribute to
social disorder. Community policing involves working with the public and private agencies, local
businesses, schools, churches, and residents to improve the community and forge a lasting
partnership between community members and the Police Department. The Social
Services/Victims Assistance Services Unit was established 21 years ago as part of the
community-oriented policing initiative.
2. Besides the services funded through this VOCA grant, what (if any) other victim services
does your agency provide? Include examples of how these services are coordinated with the
VOCA funded activities.
The Victims Services Unit (also known as the Social Services Unit) was established in
1991 as an integral part of enhancing the community oriented policing concept. The mission of
the unit is to provide another way for the community to interact with police to solve social
problems that may develop into criminal behaviors and to help victims to recover from the
impact of victimization. The Victims Assistance Coordinator's responsibilities are 1)to provide
short-term individual and family counseling to crime victims, including direct victims and
witnesses of violent crime, 2) work diligently with families and juveniles who are regularly in
contact with the police to reduce their problematic behaviors, and 3) assist individuals and
families making use of community resources and in navigating the judicial and school systems.
The Victims Services Unit has strong partnerships with other social service agencies,the judicial
system, churches, and schools to reduce criminal intent and activity by helping at-risk
populations to meet their needs and resolve their conflicts in socially acceptable and legal ways.
The Victims Assistance Coordinator is the only FTE of the unit. At any given time, there are
between two and six graduate-level interns from local colleges reporting to the Victims
Revised 05/13 5
Assistance Coordinator to assist in providing the unit's services. The interns are not paid for their
services,but they are gaining the experience they need to complete their Masters program in
social work or a related field. The Victims Assistance Coordinator supervises and directs these
interns and works closely with their college supervisors to ensure the students achieve their goals
while also successfully providing services to the individuals and families who seek help from the
Victims Services Unit. The Coordinator also oversees the VOCA funded part-time DV Case
Managers. The coordinator is aware of all of the DV victims and provides support and follow up
to the case managers as needed. The Victims Assistance Coordinator may work with the
peretrators, or other key components of the abuse, to seek or provide services. in order to. This is
one example of the agency provided services and Voca funded activities cordinating their
efforts to work with the entire family in order to further interrupt the cycle of violence.

III. Summary of Program
This section will help us understand the program for which you are seeking VOCA funds. This
must include all direct services to be provided to crime victims with VOCA and match funds. Do
not include a description of activities that will not be funded with VOCA or match funds.
1. Description of program: Please provide a description of your VOCA funded program.
Include information on any efforts to target underserved victim populations listed above that
are served by this program, such as minority, elderly or disabled populations.
The Domestic Violence (DV)program of the Victims Services Unit at the Elgin Police
Department provides services to victims of domestic violence and their family members. DV
victims come from every population--female and male, young and elderly, all races and
religions, wealthy and poor.
The DV program is not limited to partner abuse. It also addresses family violence-- including
violence between siblings, parents and their children, and roommates. In addition, the DV
program provides services to children who witness violence in their homes. The primary DV
program services include:
-- Review all DV police reports
-- Contact the victims cited on the reports via phone or letter to offer services, information,
and referrals
-- Assist victims who directly request help (with or without police reports)
-- Provide referrals to other community resources, mostly for legal advocacy and assistance
in obtaining orders of protection, emergency shelter, and finanical aid
-- Provide crisis counseling/crisis intervention(including home visits when necessary) to
victims and their family members
-- Provide personal advocacy
-- Assist victims in safety planning
-- When appropriate, head up support groups for victims who need this additional support
The Domestic Violence(DV)Case Manager's primary goal is to contact as many victims as
possible to offer information and services to help them and their children to be safe. To do
this,the case manager makes as much use of other community resources as possible. For
example, when victims wish to obtain help in resolving legal issues such as orders of
protection, divorce, and custody of children, the DV Case Manager refers them to agencies
who have specialized legal advocates. Victims in the Kane county area in Elgin are referred
to the Community Crisis Center and Prairie State Legal Services for free legal assistance.
Victims in the Cook County area in Elgin are referred to LifeSpan in Rolling Meadows for
free legal assistance. However, the DV Case Manager will directly assist victims in obtaining
orders of protection and provide criminal justice support when other agencies'legal
advocates are not available within the critical timeframe.
2. Who oversees this program? Please include position titles and duties. (Do not include
personal information.)
Victims Assistance Coordinator; duties to the Domestic Violence Program include
supervising the Domestic Violence Case Managers, submitting grant data reports and budget
reports to grant monitors and to management of the Elgin Police Department and the City of
Elgin, monitoring the budget, and providing direct services to victims of domestic violence as
necessary, especially direct referrals to the case managers when victims call directly or are
referred directly by the police officers.

This section will help us understand why your program is important to crime victims that come
into contact with your agency as well as the community you serve. This section should document
the problem(s)the organization continues to face and justify a need for continued funding.
1. Use the table below to identify the crime(s) this program will target and provide three years
of county level data for your service area. If your program does not target a specific type of
crime please include the three highest crime rates for the victims this program serves
for the jurisdiction your program serves. Data for Index offenses are available on the Illinois
Criminal Justice Information Authority's (ICJIA) website or the publication, Crime in
Illinois, produced by the Illinois State Police(ISP).

Type of crime: Type of crime: Type of crime:
Domestic Violence

1,91 1,362 1,868
* If multiple counties are served by your VOCA funded program please list the counties served
here, and accumulate the crime numbers above. The above numbers are for Kane County only,because
Kane county covers the majority of the Elgin area. A small portion of the Elgin area is in Cook County.Also,the
above numbers represent the total number of Domestic Crime Offenses,not crime indexes,because these numbers
come from the Supplemental portion of the Kane County portion of the Illinois State Police website as
recommended in the instructions above.The reports on this website do not provide Crime indexes for Domestic
Crimes.They provide only the total number of Domestic Crimes per year in the Supplemental sections of the
annual reports.
2. What is the problem(s) your VOCA funded program has identified through its contact with
the victim population served that this program addresses? (What do crime victims need that
they would not get if not for the services provided through this program?)
Safety and education are two key identified issues for victims of domestic violence in our
community. The majority of victims lack knowledge of or access to community resources that
can help them to leave their abusive partners safely. Victims may also lack the emotional
support from family and friends that is needed to follow through with utilizing community
resources, including emergency shelter, victim compensation, crisis counseling, legal advocacy,
etc. Victims who do have the support of friends and family, often prefer to come to a neutral
agency for help because they do not want to put their loved ones at risk.Victims who are
ambiguous about their feelings toward their abusers and confused about their options for
themselves and their children need to be able to explore those feelings in resolving these issues
so they can make informed decisions
3. Use the space below to provide any anecdotal information based on the experiences of
agency staff or other sources within your jurisdiction that may highlight the crime(s) and
victims served through this program. Please do not use names or any other information that
would identify a specific victim.

The following are four examples of the victims served under the JAG AARA grant
809028, which previously funded our services in the last grant period:
1. Provided crisis couseling to a mother who was being phsically abused by her 17 year old
daughter. The mother refused to allow the daughter back home after a domestic dispute. The
mother decided to lockout daughter for her safety. The Domestic violence case manager worked
throuought the day with Aunt Martha's to find immediate placement for daughter. The
daughter was picked up by Aunt Marthas and taken to a temporary shelter until DCFS could
place permanatley. The mother was happy with the outcome. The case manager spent
aproximatley 5 hours on this case.
2. Provided crisis counseling and personal advocacy for 3 victims of domestic violence. The
case manager accompanied and assisted all 3 victims in completeing their Order of Protection at
the Kane County Judicial Center, and the case manager supported the victims in their hearings
as well. 2 of the EOPs were granted, and 1 was not considered an emergency, but was continued
for the plenary hearing. The case manager spent 4 hours on each victim.
3. Provided crisis counseling, in-person information and referrals, phone information and
referrals, to a female victim of domesic violence. This young woman had a domestic dispute
with her brother. She has a past childhood history of physical abuse by her mother and sexual
abuse by her father, along with a long history of domestic violence between the parents.Victim
recently found outshe is pregnant also. The victim reports doing well. She has used the tools
and techniques learned in couseling to manage her emotions. The victim is also receiving
prenatal care and states she is detrmined to be a good parent despite her experiece. The case
manger spent 10 hours helping this client.
4. Provided crisis counseling, in-person information, and referrals to a female victim who was
sexually assaulted on a date. Victim does not want to report incident. Victim has since
developed an eating disorder while coping with the assault. Refered the victim to Alexian
Brothers for treatment. The case manager spent approximately 3 hours helping this client.
4. Provided phone information. referrals, and safety planning to a young lady who is in an
abusive relationship,but is not quite ready to leave. The case manager spent about 1 hour
helping this victim.

Revised 05/13 12
1. What were the successes of your program during the current performance period? Include
any anecdotal information that may highlight the crime(s) and victims served through this
program. Do not use names or other information that would identify a specific victim.
There were many sucessess during the current performance period, which was funded under
JAG AARA 809028 . The case manager was able to reach out to 150, otherwise silent, victims
and ensure their saftey and offer services. The case manager was able to help several females
and 1 male leave their abuse sitivations and begin rebuilding their lives. The case manger was
able to do this by providing personal advocacy while obtaining an EOP, providing community
referrals for shelter and housing, and financial resources. The case manager also was able to
assist parents/children and siblings who were becoming physically violent to peacefully solve
their conflicts with each other as well as others.
2. What barriers did you experience in implementing your program during the current
performance period? How did you respond to them? Include any anecdotal information that
may highlight the crime(s) and victims served through this program. Please do not use
names or other information that would identify a specific victim or a particular person.
During this performance period,which was funded under JAG AARA 809028, the case manager noticed there was
a decrease in the number of domestic violence incidents.After disscussing the decrease with patrol officers,it was
discovered that ther number of written reports were fewer,howerver the number of incidents were still very high.
Police officers are able to use their discretion if a written report is actually needed.This means many of the calls for
help with verbal arguments and family conflicts are often closed without writing a report,therefore we are do not get
the information to reach out to them. We have since,asked the officers to at least provide contact information for us
to follow up on.
3. Is there anything else you would like us to know based on your experiences with the current
performance period? If so,please describe here.
There seems to be an increase in cases where the couples are equally combative and the
aggressor and/or victim are not as clearly identified. There also seems to be an increase in males
who are reporting the abuse.

VI. Program Implementation
The problem statement describes the issue(s) to be addressed in the following year. This section
will tell us how these ends are going to be accomplished by describing how the VOCA grant as
well as match funded activities will be implemented in clear, logical detail and should explain
how your program will achieve its goals and objectives and work to resolve the issues addressed.
1. Please describe the specific activities each staff member (federal and match funded) under
this program will provide to crime victims and explain how those activities benefit your
target population.
Domestic Violence Case Manager's Activities and Benefits to Victims:
-- Review police reports on DV incidents and contact victims via phone or letter to offer
information, services, and referrals. Victims will benefit from this service because they will learn
that help is available to them at no cost to them, which is the first step in breaking their isolation
and empoweres them with knowledge and hope that with help they can end the abuse in their
lives.
--Provide crisis counseling, including safety planning, to victims and their family members,
including home visits when necessary. This service will help victims to think rationally about
their options and make better, informed choices, which will help them to end the abuse in their
lives.
-- Provide personal advocacy. This will benefit victims who need extra support in removing the
obstacles that are holding them back from leaving their abusive partners, including helping them
to communicate with other agencies who serve victims,helping them to find resources for
financial aid, transporting them to job interviews, etc.
--When legal advocates from other community agencies are not available, provide legal
advocacy such as criminal justice support and assistance in obtaining orders of protection. This
will help victims to navigate through a complex and impersonal legal system to obtain more
support in ending the abuse in their lives.
--Attending events such as the National Night Out or Take the Night back to hand out
information about the Domestic Violence Program and further our reach to victims. Since at least
one out of 4 people are victims of domestic violence, per nationwide statistics, distributing
information about our Domestic Violence program at these events is bound to reach more than a
few victims who need help but who did not know help was available.
--Provide information on the Domestic Violence Program to police officers as needed to ensure
police are aware of the Domestic Violence program and how we can work together to help
victims. This will benefit victims in that police will be more sensitive to their needs and more
proactive at referring them to our program to receive help.
-- As requested by schools or any other organization in the community, provide information
about our Domestic Violence Program to reach more silent victims. This will benefit victims in
that they will know they have support and understanding in the community.
The Victim Assistance Coordinator will supervise the Domestic Violence Case Manager, and
assist the Domestic Violence Case Managers in the activites listed above as needed, which will
benefit the victims as stated above.
2. Explain how the issues or barriers to the implementation of the program that you listed
above in Section V, question 2, will be addressed during the new program period?
to address the barrriers indicated in Section V question 2 the case manager will make a
request to the ITS Services Department to install the Mobile Client software on her computer to
Revised 05/13 14
gain access and training on the system. This will allow the case manager to obtain access to the
dispatch information in the hope that contact information can be found even when there is no
police report for domestic calls. This is the same software that dispatch and patrol officers use to
communicate with each other. This will assist the case manager to follow up with these families
,that were not previously reached, to help them to resolve their conflicts, to prevent the conflicts
from escalting to violence, and to reduce recidivism. Officers have informed us that they have
visited many of these families multiple times, however by the time the case manager has reached
out to them there has already been a violent act commited. The Victim's Assistance Coordinator
will also follow up with the police division commander to evaluate whether the police are in fact
using proper discretion in determining whether or not a police report should be written and what
policy for this is in place.
3. What training needs have you identified for the staff funded under this program?
No training have been identified at this time
4. How will you address those training needs? If unable to address those needs, please explain
why.
N/A
5. If VOCA funds were not available,has your organization developed a plan for the
continuation of this program? Please explain.
If VOCA funds were not available, the Domestic Violence Program would cease to exist
unless another grant could be found to fund the program or unless the City of Elgin was in a
better financial position to fund it. As of today, no other source of funding has been found.
Revised 05/13 15
VII. Implementation Schedule
The implementation schedule should be used as a planning tool for the program and should reflect a realistic projection of how the program will
proceed. The Implementation Schedule should indicate: the VOCA funded activities and services that will be provided; the month the activity/service
begins; the month the activity/service is completed; the personnel responsible for each activity/service; and the frequency with which the
activity/service will be provided. Please use the following implementation schedule form using examples as a guide.

• Enter Implementing Agency name and agreement number on the lines
provided.
• Enter amount of cash advance necessary to pay for program start-up costs.
In calculating this figure, consider equipment purchases that will take place
immediately and personnel costs for the first three months of the program.
Implementing agencies should anticipate a delay of approximately 4-6 weeks
from the submission of the request until the receipt of the State warrant.
Since federal regulations require that implementing agencies request only
the minimum amount of cash necessary to pay bills in a timely fashion, funds
should be requested only for those obligations that can be liquidated within
45 days. The Authority reserves the right to adjust cash requests as seen
necessary. If the implementing agency anticipates an inordinate expenditure
of funds during the initial period, an explanation should be attached.
• Obtain signature of authorized official and provide the individual's title,
program name, and Implementing Agency FEIN (Taxpayer ID) number on
the lines provided.
