Thank you, Chair.

Thanks to all our witnesses for being here. First I want to apologize for all the time you had to wait.

Thank you for your testimony. I wish I could ask all of you questions.

Ms. Coyle, I'll start with you.

I want to talk about data collection. We know there is a serious problem in our correctional service system as it relates to sexual coercion and violence. There are certainly many layers to that problem, the reporting and collecting the data of those crimes being one of them.

What can you recommend to ensure that CSC collects the necessary data to help better inform that issue of sexual coercion and violence within the federal prisons?
