Program/Service Notes:
The Victim Compensation Program uses funds obtained from criminal offenders to provide financial assistance, up to $25,000 per crime, to help victims pay for uninsured medical, dental, and counseling expenses, funeral and burial costs and lost income. Staff can also assist you in understanding you rights as a crime victim and in ensuring that you get all the services and assistance you need. To be eligible for the program you must be either the victim of a violent crime occurring in Massachusetts, dependents and family members of homicide victims or any person responsible for the funeral expenses of a homicide victim. Call for further requirements and information.
