Establishes a three-year pilot program in high-crime New Jersey municipalities to fund outreach by non-profits about crime victim compensation.
The bill creates a three-year pilot program in the six urban New Jersey municipalities with the highest crime index. The Department of Law and Public Safety will provide grants to non-profit organizations for community outreach about compensation for crime victims through the Victims of Crime Compensation Office. The program will operate in these high-crime areas and requires the department to submit a report to the Governor and Legislature within 90 days of its completion, recommending whether the pilot should be continued, expanded, or made permanent.
