The DC Volunteer Lawyers Project (DCVLP) received a $750,000 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women under the Legal Assistance for Victims (CFDA 16.524) program. This grant will enable DCVLP to provide comprehensive legal services, including full legal representation, brief legal services, legal advice, and legal advocacy, to low-income victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking from traditionally underserved communities, particularly immigrants of color and LGBTQ immigrants of color, living in the Washington, D.C. area. Additionally, DCVLP has received multiple subawards from the D.C. Office of Victim Services to provide trauma-informed legal, advocacy, and support services to over 1,000 domestic violence victims and children annually, with an emphasis on Wards 5, 7, and 8. These subawards cover services such as representation for child victims, case management, and attorney training.
