    Summary

    The Protection from Abuse Fund (PFA) seeks to ensure that Kansas crime victims: are aware of their rights, have their rights protected, are aware of the services available to them, and have access to quality services.


    The State Protection from Abuse Fund (PFA) was established in 1984 and is to be used solely for the purpose of making grants to programs providing:

    • Temporary emergency shelter for adult victims of domestic violence or sexual assault and their dependent children;
    • Counseling and assistance to those victims and their children; or
    • Educational services directed at reducing the incidence of domestic violence or sexual assault and diminishing its impact on victims.

    Grants made to programs will be based on the numbers of persons served by the program and will be made to agencies which are engaged, as their primary function, in programs aimed at preventing domestic violence or sexual assault or providing residential services or facilities to family or household members who are victims of domestic violence or sexual assault.
