COVA acts as a hub for administering federal funds to victims of crime throughout Colorado, with the support of victim advocates.
Through a federal grant, COVA electronically distributes funds directly to vendors, such as landlords, to support victims of crime. Victim advocates submit applications on behalf of the victims they serve.
Please note: Applications cannot be submitted directly by victims or by professionals outside the victim advocacy field. Funding availability may vary depending on current grant guidelines and the number of applications received.
COVA is diligent about providing accurate and timely information for agencies and organizations to learn about our Emergency Fund Program. Download the latest program eligibility requirements and required application documentation.
COVA works closely with organizations so they can access Emergency Funds for victim advocates. To ensure timely application approvals, we encourage all Victim Advocates to receive training on the application process. Please reach out to the Emergency Fund staff to request a free training.
