Grant Subaward #: UV23 02 0100
Subrecipient: Fresno County
The total amount of funds requested in this grant proposal from the
California Governor's Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) is $196,906. In order
to support our objectives, the Probation Department proposes two (2) FTE Victim-
Witness Advocates. Salaries are projected at actual range and step. The salary of
the Assistant Deputy Chief Probation Officer (ADC), one Program Technician (PT),
one Office Assistant (OA) and the Fiscal Officer are not paid with funds
associated with this grant, however, the individual provides direct services related
to the grant. The operating costs includes office expenses, and vehicle charges.
The Victim-Witness Advocate position provides all mandated and optional
services to the elderly victims to assist them in coping with the impact of trauma
resulting from criminal acts. Other services include but are not limited to; outreach
into the community to identify more elderly crime victims for increased referrals,
increasing victims' awareness of their rights and how to contact Victim-Witness
Advocates for assistance, and enhancing direct services to rural cities/towns
within Fresno County.
The Project Coordinator is an Assistant Deputy Chief Probation Officer and
is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the project. Grant related duties

Project Narrative
Problem Statement
1) Fresno County's demographics have led to identification of our
elderly as the focus of this Unserved/Underserved Victim Advocacy and
Outreach proposal. The Demographic Unit of California's Department of
Finance cites Fresno County as the fifth most populated of the state's 58
counties, and estimates a total of 1 ,01 1 ,499 in January 2023, of which nearly
151,452 are over the age of 65. To maximize official reporting of abuse, Victim
Advocates have provided outreach to law enforcement agencies.
The Detective in the Fresno County Sheriff's Office - Elder Unit reports
there are currently 120-140 open cases under investigation.
The Fresno County District Attorney's office currently has 50-60 Elder
Abuse cases proceeding through the judicial process. Due to the nature of
the crime, other units within the District Attorney's Office also prosecute
cases involving elder victims.
In January 2022, the eligibility age for Adult Protective Services (APS)
decreased from 65 to 60 years. Fresno County Department of Social Services
(DSS) APS received 6,479 referrals for elder clients between January 2022

through August 2023, supporting the need for enhanced services for this
vulnerable population.
Between August 2022 through June 2023, the Crime Victim Assistance
Center (CVAC) provided direct services to 482 elder crime victims, age 60
years and up.
2) Over the past 20 years, CVAC has served elderly crime victims
through various grants. Victim Advocates have been well trained in
recognizing and meeting the special needs of elderly crime victims, a
population vulnerable to physical, emotional and financial abuse.
3) Fresno County serves as home to multiple ethnically diverse cultural
groups. The American Community Survey reports that over 43% of Fresno County
residents speak a language other than English at home. Family dynamics and
fear of retribution may be involved in the decision to report abuse, so victims
need support to obtain justice. This includes a significant community of Hmong
refugees, an ethnic and linguistic group native to Southeast Asia. Fresno
County has the second-largest Hmong community in the United States with
over 35,000 Hmong residents. Most elders among them do not read or
write and are not connected to the larger community or the services it

provides. Aside from attending family functions, going to medical
appointments, or nearby gatherings, many elders prefer to stay at home.
4) Any victim of crime may feel embarrassed, afraid, or not deserving
of assistance, but perpetrators of crimes against elders are often family
members the victim has entrusted. The elderly may suffer from dementia,
physical disabilities or mental health issues, any of which compound the
effect of crime and lead to confusion about the legal system. This population is
extremely vulnerable and deserving of support and assistance.
5) The vastness of our cultural diversity compounds the challenges
of identifying, contacting, and serving these vulnerable victims. We
recognize that gaps exist in our outreach efforts to unserved/underserved
populations, such as elders in cultural groups that are difficult to reach
without established connections. We also recognize that when the current
UV grant funding ends, gaps will develop as services now being offered will
be curtailed.
Plan
1) The overarching goal of the Unserved/Underserved Victim
Advocacy and Outreach (UV) Program is to reach elderly victims of crime

and to assist them in coping with impacts and trauma that result from
criminal acts. Under the components currently provided through the UV
program, Victim Advocates are specifically assigned to work toward the
following objectives: 1 ) Improved identification of elderly victims; 2)
Increased community awareness of victims ' rights and available services; 3)
Increased law enforcement attention on UV issues; and 4) Improved services
available to elderly victims of violent crime through a collaborative inter-
agency approach. The main office for victim assistance is the James
Rowland Crime Victim Assistance Center (CVAC), located on 2220 Tulare St,
Suite 1 1 11 , Fresno, CA 93721 . We also have two satellite offices.
The Department of Social Services (DSS) is located on 250 W. Pontiac
Way, Clovis, CA 93612. The DSS enhances response and services to elderly
victims of crime through an innovative approach. The DSS is a unique, one-
of-a-kind operation. One wing of the DSS houses the County Sheriff's Elder
Abuse Unit as well as our satellite office, Adult Protective Services (APS), In
Home Supportive Services (IHSS), and two Public Health nurses.
The Juvenile Justice Campus (JJC), at 3333 East American Avenue, in
Fresno, houses a Victim Advocate who works with all victims of juvenile

offenders. Elderly-adults who have been victimized by juvenile offenders
may initially come to this office for assistance. Their immediate needs are
assessed, referrals made, and the case is transferred to the elder advocate
housed at DSS.
2) Essential services currently provided in Fresno County include
both the mandated and optional services identified in 13835.5 of the
Penal Code. Contact with the victim is made within 24 hours of referral
(excluding holidays and weekends). A Victim Advocate and/or trained
volunteer will provide the initial crisis intervention contact, either in person or by
telephone, to assess the victim's immediate needs.
3) Non-emergency referrals are made according to the initial
assessment and a Victim Advocate will contact each victim to follow-up,
which includes by letter. A vehicle is assigned to the project and utilized to
augment direct services in the field and to address transportation issues for
victims. Contact with victims is made in their homes, at community agencies,

is requested by that agency, i.e., law enforcement, District Attorney, Adult
Protective Services, etc., or when requested by the victim.
The victim will be referred to the specialized Elder Adult Victim Advocate
and will receive appropriate counseling referrals to collaborating agencies. In
the event of emotional trauma, staff will arrange for more intensive intervention
to meet the immediate needs of the victim. This may include contacting law
enforcement if the safety or well-being of the victim is of concern which may
result in placing a WIC 15703 hold.
4) Our plan is to maintain contact and continue to nurture existing
relationships between agencies within the DSS, as well as outside the
center. We will continue to make presentations to community
organizations, agencies, and cultural groups to inform them of services,
our referral system, Victim's Compensation, and Crime Victims
Constitutional Rights. We also plan to provide information tables at
community events to educate the public about UV services and crime
victims' rights.
5) Outreach is an essential component of the service plan, as
improving community awareness of services leads to an increase in

referrals. A coordinated system of agency referrals has been developed
and will continue to grow. The Fresno County Sheriff's Office Elder Abuse
Unit, Adult Protective Services, and In Home Supportive Services (IHSS) all
have satellite offices at DSS; thus, regular contact will be made with these
agencies regarding protocols and referrals.
Successful outreach to elders in cultural groups will require working
through individuals, organizations, churches or community centers familiar
to, and trusted by, the group. Victim Advocates will attempt to engage
local communities and organizations serving cultural populations to offer
outreach activities and encourage participation in various community
collaborative meetings.
6) CVAC has partnered with the Fresno County Superior Court.
Weekly, a courtroom is designated to hear petitions for restraining orders
for this population in a more calm, less crowded and timely setting. Central
California Legal Services (CCLS) occasionally attends court to support the
seniors they have assisted with the restraining order paperwork. However,
CCLS does not prepare any paperwork in court. A Victim Advocate or
appropriate volunteer is present to support elderly victims through the
court process on this specialized calendar. The Victim Advocate or

volunteer provides crisis intervention and referrals as appropriate after the
hearing.
Orientation to the Criminal Justice System will be provided to the victim
which may include an explanation of Marsy's Rights, court hearings, court
support, Victim Impact Statements, restitution, and restraining orders. The Victim
Advocate can also act as a liaison for the victim when dealing with law
enforcement, District Attorney, Probation Officer and other agencies. If
needed, the case may be staffed during a multi-disciplinary team meeting
to address any additional needs or concerns regarding the victim. When
appropriate, court support will be provided through an ongoing information
exchange regarding case status and disposition; further, Victim Advocates
will assist with court escort, court testimony, and delivery of Victim Impact
Statements.
7) Applications for emergency and non-emergency financial
assistance through the California Victim Compensation Board (Cal VCB) will
be completed by the Victim Advocate. The advocates will advise the victim
of the availability of the benefits, assist with the application forms, obtain the
necessary documentation to support the claim, and monitoring the claim

status. Follow-up tracking of application status will be provided upon request
of the victim.
8) Our Victim Advocates will continue to attend training to enhance
their advocacy skills regarding many types of crime, as elderly are
impacted by all crimes as well as criminal abuse. Ongoing cultural
competency training is provided on issues specifically affecting victims of
elder abuse. Multidisciplinary team building is accomplished through
regular attendance and participation in inter-agency meetings including,
but not limited to: the Elder Abuse Roundtable, Multidisciplinary Team
Meetings at DSS, and the rural Reedley Victim Collaborative Meeting.
Ongoing participation in these meetings and others throughout the
community will ensure that victims' rights remain in the forefront and that
collaborative working relationships with local law enforcement agencies
as well as other community-based organizations are maintained and
strengthened. Trainings and presentations will continue to be provided
on-site at area law enforcement agencies. We request that cases be
referred by age, as well as the specific Penal Code.
9) Due to the coronavirus pandemic, use of volunteers is currently not
being utilized by the Fresno County Probation Department. We have

requested a waiver for the use of volunteers to assist the victim population. It
is included with this proposal. When able, volunteer services will be available
to assist the victim population. Many of the volunteers will come from Fresno
State University and will likely have a bachelor's degree which includes a
Victimology Option, B.S. In addition, volunteers may come from other
institutions of higher learning. The Probation Department employs the
following methods to recruit volunteers: networking with colleges,
participation at job fairs, providing community presentations, and partnering
with service agencies. For the safety of our clients and staff, volunteers are
required to complete an application similar to an employment application
and agree to submit to and pass a background check.
Capabilities
1) Two full-time Victim-Witness Advocates will be assigned to manage
and implement the project to meet the program goals and objectives in

(IHSS), District Attorney's office, law enforcement, and numerous local
resources specifically for the elder population. CVAC can receive referrals
from these agencies to provide services to the referred victims. Among the
state government agencies with which continuous collaboration exists is the
California Victim Compensation Board and the California Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation. Over the long history of CVAC, a plethora
of local organizations exist with which CVAC collaborates.

Another federal law generally prohibits federal funds awarded by OJP from being
used by Subrecipients (and any Second-Tier Subrecipients), to pay any person to
influence (or attempt to influence) a federal agency, a Member of Congress, or
Congress (or an official or employee of any of them) with respect to the awarding of
2-109a Federal Fund Grant Subaward Assurances - VOCA (Revised 11/2022) 10
a federal grant or cooperative agreement, subgrant, contract, subcontract, or loan,
or with respect to actions such as renewing, extending, or modifying any such

Volunteer Waiver Request
Grant Subaward #: UV23 02 0100
Subrecipient: Fresno County
Justification:
Fresno County is required to include a programmatic plan that outlines how
volunteer(s) will contribute to the grant objectives. However, due to the
ongoing corona virus pandemic, Fresno County is seeking a waiver from this
requirement. Furthermore, it is difficult to find and recruit volunteers who are
willing and able to participate in the grant activities, given the high risk of
transmission in Fresno County, which has reached a positive test rate of 13.3% in
the last 90 days (June -September 2023).

Match Waiver Request Form
Cal OES Subrecipients may request a partial or full match waiver for Victim of Crime Act
(VOCA) Victim Assistance Formula Grant Program funds. Approval is dependent on a
compelling justification. To request a partial or full match waiver, the Subrecipient must
complete the following:
1 . Cal OES Grant Subaward Number: UV23 02 0010
2. Subrecipient's Name: Fresno County
3. Grant Subaward Performance Period 01/01 /2024 through 12/31 /2024
4. VOCA Fund Source #1 : 23VOCA

Amount of Match Proposed (post approved Match Waiver): $ 0
5. VOCA Fund Source #2 (if applicable): Select
VOCA Victim Assistance Formula Grant Program Funds Awarded:
Amount of Match Proposed (post approved Match Waiver):
6. Briefly summarize the services provided:
Funding allows two Victim-Witness Advocate positions that provides all mandated and
optional services to the elderly victims to assist them in coping with the impact of
trauma resulting from criminal acts.
7. Describe practical/logistical obstacles and/or local resource constraints to providing
match:
The County is not yet one year removed from the National Emergency Pandemic Period as the federal
COVID-19 Public Health Emergency (PHE) declaration ended on May 11, 2023. The impact on the local,
state, and national economy remains unknown and may be significant. The unknowns in the current
economy and other contributing outside factors could have a significant impact on local resources.
Waiving the Match would permit the County to make additional funding available to help address any
downturn in revenues resulting from the corona virus and any contributing outside factors that would
impact the next fiscal year. The waiver of the Match would free up funding to help address local
funding constraints resulting from the pandemic.
