FAQ: Question & Answer
Do taxpayer dollars contribute to the Crime Victims Fund?
To date, Crime Victims Fund (Fund) dollars have always come from offenders convicted of federal crimes, not from taxpayers. Information on the Fund is available from the
Crime Victims Fund Fact Sheet
from the
Office for Victims of Crime (OVC)
. For additional information, visit the
Crime Victim Services: Victim Compensation
section of our Web site.
