Crime Victim Compensation Under the California Victims of Crime (VOC) Program
Certain victims of crime may be eligible to receive payments from the Restitution Fund for unreimbursed (from any source) losses directly resulting from a crime. Such crimes include but are not limited to: rape, child abuse, robbery (not burglary), domestic violence, assault or if a family member was a homicide victim. Money will not remove a victim's pain or bring back a loved one, but it may help a victim and their families restart their life.

Losses that may be covered:

• Medical/dental
• Mental health counseling
• Wage/income
• Financial support
• Job training
• Funeral/burial

Losses NOT covered:
(While these losses are not covered under VOC, they may be recoverable through court ordered restitution during the defendant's sentencing or a civil lawsuit).

• Personal property losses, including cash
• Pain and suffering
