flag US Justice Dept proposes changes to state victim aid guidelines, targeting racial disparities and reducing subjective claim denials.

flag The US Justice Department has proposed changes to guidelines governing state programs providing financial assistance to crime victims. flag The aim is to address racial disparities and reduce the number of subjective claim denials. flag The proposed changes would prohibit states from considering a victim's criminal history and discontinue certain subjective reasons for denying compensation. flag The changes would also limit when a state program can deny a person for misconduct and clarify that victims should not have their compensation clawed back from crowdfunding sources.
