Dear Mr. Hernandez:
Congratulations on your 2007/2008 Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) grant award. Each year the
United States Department of Justice allocates a VOCA grant to Florida based on the availability
of funds from federal court cases. Requests for the 2007/2008 grant year exceeded the
availability of funds for the State of Florida. Due to the reduction of Florida's allocation, your
2007/2008 award is based on your current 2006/2007 grant application as approved by the
Office of the Attorney General (OAG). If your grant award differs from your 2006/2007
allocation amount, you will need to submit the following:
1. A revised budget;
2. Revised Goals and Objectives;
3. Public agencies only: A signed original Supplanting Certification, (enclosed);
4. Signed original acknowledgment, (enclosed);
All revisions must be submitted on the forms provided in the original grant application. These
forms can also be downloaded from our website http://myfioridalegal.com/ under the heading of
Crime Victims Services.
The above items must be submitted to the Bureau of Advocacy and Grants Management no
later than August 21, 2007. Once the revisions and documents have been approved, the
VOCA agreement will be mailed to your agency. A VOCA Agreement will not be mailed to your
agency until all the necessary revisions and documents are received and approved.
I look forward to working with you during the coming year.
Sincerely,
(v12,c,
