BVS - Victim Compensation

Battlefords Victim Services can connect you to programs to help you cope with what has happened, including the Victims Compensation Program.

The Victim Compensation program can provide payment for reasonable expenses resulting from a violent crime. While compensation may not address all of your concerns as a victim, it may help you recover some of the expenses related to the crime. Expenses resulting from property crimes are not covered by Victims Compensation.

If you have been the victim of a violent crime, you must report the crime to the police. To obtain a Victims Compensation Application form and for help completing it, contact your nearest Victim Services office. Applications can be made up to two years after the date of the crime. Victims of historical sexual assault may not be ready to report to police for a number of years. In these cases, victims may apply for compensation within two years after the report was made to police.

BVS - Victim Compensation is open Monday to Friday 8AM - 5PM; closed for lunch 12 - 1PM.
