Overview

CalVCB administers the Victim Compensation Program, which provides reimbursement for crime-related expenses to victims who suffer physical injury or the threat of physical injury as a result of a violent crime. CalVCB also administers the Restitution Recovery Program, the Good Samaritan Program and the Missing Children Reward Program. Trauma Recovery Center Grant (Fiscal Year 26/27) Purpose The Trauma Recovery Center Grant funds centers throughout California that assist victims of violent crime. These centers provide wrap-around services and assist victims who are typically unserved and underserved communities. Introduction The California Victim Compensation Board (CalVCB) helps victims pay for many crimerelated expenses. Under state law, CalVCB reviews applications and awards grants to Trauma Recovery Centers (TRC) in California. These centers provide services to crime victims. The grant program awards money so TRCs can offer trauma-informed care to all victims of crime. Victims do not need to apply and be approved for compensation through CalVCB’s program to receive help at a TRC. The services provided at the TRC must follow state law, grant program rules, and this Notice of Funds Available (NOFA). TRC grants are paid through reimbursement. This means TRCs pay for services first. Next, they send CalVCB the expenses by the last business day of the following month. Then, they will be paid back for approved expenses within 60-90 days from when CalVCB gets and approves the invoices and supporting documentation. Matching funds are not required to apply for the grant. CalVCB encourages other funding sources because the amount of money available each year changes.
