The Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women awarded a $750,000 Legal Assistance for Victims (LAV) Grant Program (CFDA 16.524) to Legal Services of North Florida, Inc. (LSNF) to provide comprehensive civil and criminal legal services to survivors of sexual assault, stalking, dating and domestic violence in 16 Florida panhandle counties. Through this 3-year project grant, LSNF will collaborate with Refuge House, Gulf Coast Sexual Assault Program, and the Florida Council Against Sexual Violence to deliver legal representation, advocacy, and assistance to victims in various legal matters such as family law, immigration, housing, protection orders, employment, and criminal justice proceedings. The project aims to strengthen efforts to prevent and end sexual assault, including through the development of outreach materials, web-based educational content for survivors, and a training manual and webinar for new attorneys on representing survivors of sexual assault.
