Recognition gives strength
The Schadefonds Geweldsmisdrijven gives financial compensation to people who have become a victim of a violent- or sexual crime resulting in serious psychological or physical injuries. By compensating the damages suffered, the Schadefonds acknowledges that the victims have been wronged. In this way, the Schadefonds contributes to restore confidence.
Application
Are you a victim of a violent- or sexual crime and did you suffer injuries as a result? Or did a close relative of yours die as a result of an intentional violent crime? If so, then you can file an application for compensation with the Schadefonds Geweldsmisdrijven. This is partial compensation for your injuries (pain and suffering) and for any financial damages you suffered, such as medical expenses or a loss of income due to incapacity for work.
