The U.S. Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women awarded a $750,000 Legal Assistance for Victims (LAV) Grant (CFDA 16.524) to the House of Ruth Maryland, Inc. Domestic Violence Legal Clinic to provide legal representation to victims and survivors of domestic violence and intimate partner sexual assault in divorce and custody cases in Maryland. The grant, which is a continuation of a previous award, will address the priority area of advancing equity and tribal sovereignty by prioritizing services to survivors in traditionally underserved communities, including those with limited English proficiency and low income. The project will run from October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2027, continuing the organization's efforts to increase the availability of civil and criminal legal assistance to effectively aid victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking.
