Crime Victims Reparation and Emergency Funding
The New Mexico Crime Victims Reparation Commission (CVRC) was formed in 1981 under the Crime Victims Reparation Act to assist victims of violent crime with expenses incurred as a result of their victimization. There are two different forms of funding available through the CVRC. While Reparation funding can be sought by an individual directly from the CVRC, emergency funding must be applied for by a service provider on behalf of the individual that is seeking safety. Each county area has their own provider. Please contact the CVRC directly to locate the provider for your location. www.cvrc.state.nm.us/cvrc-application/
Service Providers that are also CSVANW Members
The Coalition to Stop Violence Against Native Women has an amazing network of providers all across the region that are taking the initiative to work together to address violence in our communities. They also carry a wealth of knowledge and may be able to help you locate resources and other means of safety.
