NCAVP members collected information about 2,181 victims and survivors of hate violence in 2009. This represents a decrease of 12% from 2008. As mentioned previously, this decline should not be interpreted as reflecting a decrease in the actual number of LGBTQ people targeted for hate violence in 2009; rather, it is much more likely that the decrease is due to diminished programming and staff capacity to take and respond to reports in the wake of the fiscal crisis.
