Compliance Monitoring Report Due Dates HTML

Annual Compliance Monitoring Report (Automated Spreadsheet Format)
OJJDP has developed a template to use on the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet program. This template requests all of the information to be submitted to fulfill the State's annual reporting requirements.

States that are considering using this form should note the following:

  • The electronic form is a template only. To use it the State must first have the Microsoft Excel program, version 97 or greater.

  • OJJDP cannot provide technical assistance or training on using Microsoft Excel. Those not familiar with Microsoft Excel should use the paper format below.

  • The template cannot and should not be modified. If modifications are necessary because of differences in the manner in which a State monitors for compliance, the State should use the paper format to fully explain those differences.

  • Although it is provided as an electronic template, the form should not be submitted electronically. The entire workbook with all spreadsheet tabs must be printed and then sent to OJJDP with all of the requested attachments. When ready to print in Excel, select File, Print, then under "Print What," select "Entire Workbook."
