Children’s Aid makes it possible for victims of domestic violence to get financial help for services they need to recover and rebuild strong, healthy families. Cost should not be a barrier to recovery.
Our Victim Services programs help those who have been abused or victims of a crime apply for compensation for lost wages, transportation for both medical appointments and court appearances, moving expenses, and any outside medical care or mental health services. Our goal is to help children, youth, and families be their best.
Expenses should not hinder recovery
Children’s Aid provides victim's services through two programs. We offer comprehensive services for families dealing with domestic violence through our Family Wellness program. The New York State Office of Victim’s Services offers help for the uncompensated costs of services to those injured as a result of violence in the home and for children who have witnessed domestic violence. We want to make sure that assistance gets to the people who need it.
At the Next Generation Center in the Bronx, the Alternatives to Living In Violent Experiences, or the A.L.I.V.E program (also funded by the state's Office of Victim's Services), offers a multilayered approach to support young people who have been victims of a crime or witnessed one.
When families are strong and healthy, there is no limit to what children and youth can achieve. We are here to help everyone through every step of their recovery.
