Dina Titus of Nevada\u2019s First Congressional District announced a $2,049,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Justice to the Nevada Department of Administration\u2019s Victims of Crime Program.\nThe award will help victims or their dependents in Nevada pay for medical bills, funeral costs, counseling, and other services in FY2017. The grant is predominantly funded by penalties, fines, and restitution imposed on criminals and comes from the DOJ\u2019s Crime Victims Fund. State officials from the Department of Administration annually apply for the grant. The money helped provide services to about 2,500 Nevadans in the past year.\n\u201cAmericans are victims of more than 20 million crimes each year and often face unnecessary and unfortunate challenges as a result,\u201d Rep.
