The Council on Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault is pleased to offer new funding specifically for service areas that have been limited or unfunded in the past. The purpose of the Enhanced Services for Victims of Crime grant program is to provide funding to community, municipal or tribal organizations to serve victims of crime in Alaska.
Funds available through this RFP will focus on three (3) primary areas of service:
1. Legal Assistance Services for victims of crime to assert their rights as victims in a civil or criminal proceeding directly related to the victimization;
2. Mental health counseling for children and youth through 18 years of age who are direct victims of physical or sexual abuse and/or have witnessed violent crimes; and
3. Child Advocacy Center Services (CACs) for the purpose of enhancing existing service provision in Alaska.
