Without VOCA funds, SACASA wouldn’t be able to provide its free therapy services and would have less advocacy services available for survivors. Please help us advocate by following ACESDV’s steps!A domestic violence program in rural Arizona shared that without VOCA, 4,000 domestic violence survivors would not have received life saving services in their area during the last year.
Arizona programs depend on VOCA to meet the needs of survivors, & we are at a crisis point with the health of the Crime Victims Fund. We need Congress to act now to include the #VOCAFix in the budget deal. We must let Congress know victims can’t wait! #Crisis4Victims
Here's how you can help -
Congress is finalizing its year end funding bill RIGHT NOW, and it MUST include important provisions to prevent catastrophic cuts to Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) grants. Victim assistance grants may be cut as much as 77% for Arizona compared to three years ago if Congress doesn't act now!
Contact House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy by phone and Twitter.
CALL Leader McCarthy's office at 202-225-2915. If you can't get through on that number, call his District office at 661-327-3611. Use the script below to tell him that this is a crisis and we need him to be a champion for survivors!
"My name is [your name], and I am calling from [your location and, if applicable, your program]. Critical victim services, including services for victims of child abuse, domestic violence, sexual assault, trafficking, drunk driving, and other crimes are facing catastrophic cuts due to record low deposits into the Crime Victims Fund. On behalf of victims and the programs that serve them around the nation, I am calling to ask Leader McCarthy to be a champion for victims and to prevent an 81% cut to VOCA grants by passing the VOCA deposits fix before the end of the year."
Then, AFTER CALLING, Tweet at him (@GOPLeader), using the hashtags #Crisis4Victims and #VOCAFix:
.@GOPLeader Lifesaving services for victims are on the line. There is a #Crisis4Victims. Congress, pass the #VOCAFix BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR! bit.ly/3op06Rq
