Summary
Existing law establishes, within the Government Operations Agency, the California Victim Compensation Board. Existing law sets forth the various duties of the board, which include, among others, compensating victims and derivative victims of specified types of crimes for losses suffered as a result of those crimes and processing certain claims against the state. Under existing law, the board is composed of the Secretary of Government Operations, or their designee, the Controller, and a 3rd member who is appointed by, and serves at the pleasure of, the Governor. This bill would add 4 members to the board who would be appointed by, and serve at the pleasure of, the Governor. The bill would require 2 of those members to be survivors of violent crimes, and 2 of them to be public health professionals with expertise in trauma and healing.
