Cash Aid

Victim Compensation Fund.

The Victim Compensation Fund, in collaboration with the City Attorney's Office and Scholar Fund, aims to alleviate the financial burdens faced by individuals and small businesses in Seattle who have suffered losses due to unforeseen incidents. Recognizing the challenges and inequities of the restitution system, this initiative ensures victims receive the necessary compensation while promoting a more restorative approach to justice.

Eligible recipients can expect to receive up to $1,000 in restitution funds.

Our dedicated team will proactively contact potential beneficiaries, guiding them through the verification process, which includes confirming residency, income, and other eligibility criteria.
