The California Victim Compensation Board (CalVCB) provides compensation for victims of crime. CalVCB provides eligible victims with reimbursement for many crime-related expenses. CalVCB funding comes from restitution paid by criminal offenders through fines, orders, penalty assessments and federal matching funds. On July 1, 2013, Government Code section 13963.1 became law stipulating that the CalVCB administer a program to evaluate applications and award grants to trauma recovery centers (TRCs) in California to provide services to victims of crime. The Trauma Recovery Center Grant will award funding for TRCs to provide trauma-informed services to victims of crime.
