What is paid for by the Crime Victim Compensation Program?
The Crime Victim Compensation Program pays up to $40,000 for certain out of pocket expenses incurred by an eligible victim of crime who suffered a personal injury or death and are not covered by another source (i.e., insurance). Losses may include medical expenses, counseling expenses, lost wages, loss of support, replacement costs of clothing, bedding or other property held as evidence, cleaning and securing a crime scene, homemaker services and an additional $2,000 for funeral expenses. The Program does not cover property crimes.
