2022-23 Victim Advocacy in Detention Facilities (KA) Program RFP

The purpose of the KA Program is to increase access to appropriate services for victims of sexual assault in detention facilities. For the purposes of this RFP, local detention facilities include adult detention facilities, juvenile detention facilities, and immigration detention facilities. Subrecipients may work with one or more detention facilities in their service area. The KA Program requires each Subrecipient to fund a Sexual Assault Counselor, per Evidence Code 1035.2, to solely focus on serving victims in local detention facilities, and to act as a point of contact for detention facility staff to assist in removing any physical or programmatic barriers to services for victims.
