*In response to the passage of the HateCrime Statistics Act of 1990, the AttorneyGeneral designated the FBIs Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program to develop and implement a data collection system for nearly 17,000 voluntary law enforcement agency participants. With the cooperationand assistance of several local and state enforcement agencies already experienced in investigation of hate crimes and the of related information, comprehensive

guidelines for the compilation of hate crimewere established.

Hate Crime Statistics Act was recentlyamended by the Violent Crime and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 to include crimes motivated by a bias against persons withdisabilities. In order to comply with thisamendment, the FBI began collecting data disability bias crimes on January 1, 1997. Also, the Church Arson Prevention Act, signed into law in July 1996, amended theCrime Statistics Act by permanentlyextending the data collection mandate.
