The Auditor Feedback form consists of complaints, concerns, and other information about auditor performance submitted to the PRC by various stakeholders, including agency/facility personnel, other auditors, victim advocates, and other interested parties. These submissions are reviewed and triaged by the PRC as they are received. PRC staff will manage some submissions directly, although in most cases, the information is referred to the PREA Management Office for additional steps, depending upon the nature of the complaint.

The PRC will operate an assistance request form on its website and will respond to assistance requests by engaging with jurisdictions, assessing what services are appropriate, and meeting the needs of the requesting organization as resources allow. All data regarding the interaction will be tracked in the PRC's information database. Full assistance cases will be reported as individual TTAs.
