Victims naturally look to the criminal justice system for help.
Court-ordered restitution is now mandatory, but sometimes is not enough to cover a victim's losses. This page will summarize how the Michigan Crime Victim Compensation Fund may be able to help. If you have further questions, contact your county Prosecuting Attorney's Victim Assistance Coordinator . The actual amount of compensation, if any, depends upon the facts of each case. Do not try to decide for yourself whether you are eligible.
