Funding will support the Nevada Office of the Attorney General in delivering services that assist victims of domestic and sexual violence, dating violence, and stalking. This may include supporting prosecution efforts and developing law enforcement strategies to combat violent crimes against women at the state and local levels in Nevada. The grant funds will also likely aid victim service providers through June 2023.
