The chin-jung community project

The Korean-American Family Service Center Inc. was awarded a $300,000 Project Grant from the Department of Justice Offices Boards and Divisions Office on Violence Against Women. The grant is part of the Culturally and Linguistically Specific Services Program (CFDA 16.016) and will support the Chin-Jung Community Project from October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2023.

Under this award, the Korean-American Family Service Center Inc. will enhance culturally specific services for victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking in the Flushing, New York area.

The $300,000 in federal funding will support these linguistically and culturally appropriate victim services over the two year award period.
