Many of the advocates who staff the phone lines are trained by the Utah Coalition Against Sexual Assault (UCASA) and are part of the larger UCASA family. When you call the 24-hour sexual violence crisis line, you’ll be routed to a local organization in your area based on the first six digits of your phone number. The Utah Sexual Violence Crisis Line is a safe, confidential service offered to sexual violence survivors anywhere in the state.

Once approved, your claim remains open for a three-year period. CVR funds are not based on personal income and do not need to be reimbursed. The funds are not determined by your legal status.

If approved, you will be given a claim number and assigned a CVR officer who will work directly with you to disperse funds as needed.

To qualify for reparations, a police report must be filed and the offense must have occurred in Utah or the victim must be a Utah resident. CVR can assist with costs of medical care, counseling, and other specific needs in relation to the crime.
