Hate Crime Data Collection Guidelines and Training Manual (Version 2.0)

By Crime Statistics Management Unit (Csmu) and Law Enforcement Support Section (Less)

On June 5, 2013, the CJIS Advisory Policy Board (APB) approved a motion to modify the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program's Hate Crime data collection procedures to begin including all self-identified religions in the United States as listed in the Pew Research Center's Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life (2008) and the U.S. Census Bureau's Statistical Abstract (2012). The APB also approved a motion to modify the UCR Hate Crime data collection procedures to include an anti-Arab bias motivation. The FBI Director authorized these motions on June 28, 2013. The FBI UCR Program, which collects and publishes information about crimes motivated by bias, has modified its data collection accordingly by defining the specific religions and the ethnicity/ancestry Arab, as well as providing corresponding examples. The UCR Program collaborated with members of the Arab, Hindu, Muslim, and Sikh communities to develop the corresponding training scenarios, as well as Appendix F.
