You have a little extra time to apply for victim services
grants from the California Governor’s Office of Emergency
Services (Cal OES). They have extended the deadline for the
Request for Application (RFA) for the County Victim Services (XC)
Program from April 12th to May 24. This is
for grants covering fiscal years 2016/2017 and
2017/2018
The County Victim Services Program will support each of
California’s 58 counties, and the City of Los Angeles, in
providing direct services to victims. Cal OES recognizes that
there are unmet gaps/needs at the county level in regards to
providing these direct services. This one-time, two-year Program
will allow each county (and the City of Los Angeles) the
opportunity to identify these gaps/needs in victim services and
develop a plan (plan must include measurable objectives) to meet
these gaps/needs.
There is $40,000,000 (plus match) available for the XC Program.
Cal OES will fund all 58 counties, and the City of Los Angeles,
for one, 24-month performance period beginning July 1, 2016, and
ending June 30, 2018.
The XC Application package must be received by May 24,
2016.For questions regarding this RFA, please contact Jennifer
Fowler, Criminal Justice Unit Specialist, via email at jennifer.fowler@caloes.ca.gov.
