What This Grant Funds

The Department of Justice is committed to advancing work that promotes civil rights, increases access to justice, supports crime victims, protects the public from crime and evolving threats, and builds trust between law enforcement and the community. The program provides for the development, operation, and management of the Office for Victims of Crime’s National Center for Culturally Responsive Victim Services (the Center). The Center will facilitate the delivery of national-scale, high-quality training and technical assistance to increase access to victim services and victim compensation for victims of crime in areas that have been historically underserved, marginalized, and adversely affected by inequality, including communities of color. See Executive Order 13985, Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government § 2(b) (January 20,2021) (defining "underserved communities"). The Center will increase the capacity of community-based organizations to address the critical need for culturally relevant, trauma-informed, victim-centered services. The Center’s efforts will also align with the Federal government’s goal in advancing equity for all, as outlined in Executive Order 13985.
