Division (CVAD)Victim Services Support (VSS) Program
The Victim Services Support (VSS) Program provides partial funding and
technical assistance to community-based, system-based, and statewide victim
service programs throughout
Iowa
. Funded victim service programs provide free and
confidential services to persons who are victims of crime. The VSS Program
administers the
Iowa
’s American Recovery & Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA or
Stimulus) Funds from the Victims of Crime Act (VA) and Violence Against Women
Act (VW).
The primary purpose of the Stimulus funds is to stimulate the economy,
preserve and create jobs, and assist those most impacted by the recession.
These funds are used an effort to minimize the reductions in essential services
for victims.
The VSS Program has awarded all of the Stimulus funds for agencies providing
services except for the funds specific to prosecution. If you are
interested in applying for Stimulus funds specific to prosecution please
contact Donna Phillips, Administrator, at 515-281-5044, 1-800-373-5044, or at
