The listing for each country includes available information like the following: eligibility requirements; claimants; procedures; benefits and award limits; compensable costs; emergency awards; funding sources; and specific contact information (addresses and phone numbers). Also, at the beginning of the directory is a table of most of the countries in the world, with a simple designation to show which countries provide or do not provide such compensation programs.
Your donation helps Prison Fellowship International repair the harm caused by crime by emphasizing accountability, forgiveness, and making amends for prisoners and those affected by their actions. When victims, offenders, and community members meet to decide how to do that, the results are transformational.
