Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird Monday announced that the Attorney General’s office has reformed its crime-victim compensation application, transitioning to a paperless system that improves efficiency and security and streamlines the online form.
Bird says her office has updated the form and the way it is processed to make it easier for victims requesting support to help get back up on their feet.
The application also adds a form for families whose loved ones were murdered, which was not supported by the previous system.
Existing grant funds were used to reform the application at no additional cost to taxpayers.
