On May 16, 2024, at 1:00 p.m. ET, BJS statisticians will host the Nation’s Two Crime Measures webinar. This webinar will provide an overview of BJS’s National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) and the FBI’s National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS). Participants will learn about the similarities and differences between the NCVS and NIBRS, the data each collects, and how these data are collected. This presentation will also demonstrate how data from these collections can be used to address questions about crime.
The Bureau of Justice Statistics of the U.S. Department of Justice is the principal federal agency responsible for collecting, analyzing, and disseminating reliable statistics on crime and criminal justice in the United States. Kevin M. Scott, PhD, is the acting director.
