The remainder will be used for staff to attend regional or national conferences sponsored by the National Association of Crime Victim Compensation Boards. I am certifying to you that the administrative funds will not be used to supplant state or local funds, and will be used to increase the amount of funds available to the Reparations Program. Secondary victims who live together in one household are counted as one claim. Secondary victims who live separately and have their own expenses as a result of a crime, are usually counted separately. NO Police reports are requested after the claim is received since they are rarely included with the claim form.
Counties are responsible for paying for sexual assault exams.
If the county does not pay, the reparations program will pay through the regular process. Regarding the number of domestic violence claims in Section IIIb., it is not always indicated on the police report or the claim form whether or not the crime was related to domestic violence, so there may have been greater numbers of domestic abuse claims than shown.
