Mental Health Provider Application
There are over 16,000 untested/unsubmitted sexual assault kits (in other words, 16,000 survivors) in the state of North Carolina that are currently being tested as mandated by the Attorney General in 2017. Being notified by law enforcement and/or advocates years, sometimes decades later, that their sexual assault kit has been tested, can understandably cause trauma to a survivor and their loved ones. The North Carolina Department of Justice is pleased to provide them the possibility of free counseling services via our Survivor Fund, which is funded through our federal DOJ SAKI Grant. Having to pay for these services out of pocket or through their own insurance is a burden that no survivor should have to endure. We invite you to help us provide this trauma-informed service by applying to be a 3rd party service provider. Once approved, you will need to submit monthly invoices and the NC DOJ will reimburse you the full amount requested within the maximum amounts listed below.
