The State Council for Persons with Disabilities (SCPD) has reviewed the Delaware Violent Crimes Compensation Board's proposal to adopt new regulations covering mental health and funeral/burial expenses published as 12 DE Reg. 1150 in the March 1, 2009 issue of the Register of Regulations. SCPD has the following observations.

First, the numbering of the new regulation is inconsistent with the numbering of final regulations adopted in the March issue of the Register of Regulations, 12 DE Reg. 1193. The latter regulations include a §26.0 which covers burial awards. The proposed regulation does not repeal the existing §26.0 but creates a new §26.0 covering mental health counseling.

Second, in §26.1.2, the word "affect" should be "effect".

Third, §26.1.1 imposes a cap on mental health counseling of $7,500. Moreover, §26.1.4 recites that the "Board pays mental health provider claims at 80% of charges." There is arguably some "tension" between these limitations and the enabling statutes.

A. Title 11 Del. C. §9002(7) defines "pecuniary loss" as "expenses actually and necessarily incurred", not 50%, 60% or 80% of the actual expenses. Moreover, to the extent that an "80%" limit is not applied to "physical health" claims, the regulation may violate the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act.

B. The Board can establish a maximum cap on mental health expenses pursuant to Title 11 Del. C. §9020 for children. Apart from the general $25,000 and $50,000 caps in Title 11 Del. C 9007, there is no explicit authorization to impose a cap on mental health services for adults. Indeed, the absence of a cap in Title 11 Del. C. §9002(7) suggests that the Legislature envisioned no cap on mental health services other than the overall $25,000 and $50,000 caps. See also Title 11 Del. C. §9002(7)f which explicitly excludes "counseling" from a $1,000 cap on reasonable expenses for secondary victims.

Fourth, §26.2.1 is misnumbered as "23.2.1. It contains a definition of "victim". SCPD recommends deletion since §2.0 already contains a definition of "victim" applicable to the entire Part 301 regulation. Moreover, the definition in §23.2.1 is not co-terminus with the definition in §2.0. The former section defines a victim as someone injured or killed during the commission of any crime while §2.0 and Title II Del. C. §9002(10) limit a "victim" to someone injured or killed by a crime "as defined in this chapter".

Fifth, §26.2.2 contains a definition of "secondary victim". SCPD recommends deletion since §2.0 already contains a definition of "secondary victim" applicable to the entire Part 301 regulation and the definition in §26.2.2 is not co-terminus with the definition in §2.0. The former section includes a "latch-key child" which is omitted from the latter section and Title 11 Del. C. §9002(9).

Sixth, §26.2.3 contains a definition of "child". It should be deleted since §2.0 already contains a definition of "child" applicable to the entire Part 301 regulation. See also §26.4.1 which cross references the definition of "child" in §2.0.

Seventh, in §26.3.2, substitute "its" for "their" to correct use of a plural pronoun with a singular antecedent.

Eighth, in §26.6.4, second sentence, substitute "are" for "is".

Ninth, §26.4 is inconsistent with §25.1 of the regulations adopted at 12 DE Reg. 1193 (March 1, 2009) since the latter omits "Licensed Mental Health Counselor". The Board may wish to prospectively amend §25.1 to include a reference to "mental health counseling".

Tenth, §29.1 imposes an $8,500 cap on funeral and burial expenses. SCPD questions the Board's authority to impose such a cap. The enabling statute [Title 11 Del. C. §9002(7)] defines pecuniary loss as including "funeral and burial expenses" and, while caps are legislatively imposed on certain expenses, they are not imposed on" funeral and burial expenses." See Title 11 Del. C. §9002(7)a-I. The legislative intent is ostensibly to impose no arbitrary cap but only the general $25,000 cap [Title 11 Del. C. §9007(d)].

Eleventh, §29.1.4.1 is odd. It suggests that mental health counseling is considered part of funeral/burial expenses for secondary victims. However, mental health counseling is not included in the list of "permitted expenses" in §29.1.2. Moreover, the enabling statute ostensibly rejects imposition of a cap on counseling services for secondary victims where the primary victim has been killed. See Title 11 Del. C. §9002(7)f By including such expenses in §29, they would be subject to the $8,500 cap imposed by §29.1.1.

F. The Joint Sunset Committee shall:
Send a letter to the Governor asking him to not move forward with reappointing any VCCB members whose term expires or who resigns before the JSC process is completed.

Epilogue language of FY’08 Budget Bill included language which reallocated funds from the Violent Crimes Compensation Board to the Office of the Attorney General to fund family violence programs in Kent and Sussex Counties. Send a letter to the Chairs of the Joint Finance Committee, Russ Larsen and Mike Morton from the JSC requesting that the JFC add New Castle County to the epilogue language this year.
Section 51 of the FY 2009 Budget Act on page 112.
1 Section 51. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Delaware Code to the contrary,$655.0 shall be transferred from the Victims Compensation Fund for the following purposes: $230.2 ASF shall be transferred to Contractual Services in the Office of the Attorney General (15-01-01) to fund family violence services in Kent and Sussex counties; $273.8 ASF Victims Rights in the Office of the Attorney General; and $151.0 ASF Contractual Services in the Department of Correction, Community Corrections, Probation and Parole (38-06-02) to support a community restorative justice program in New Castle County.
(b) It is the intent of the General Assembly and the Administration that the funds identified in subsection (a) shall be established in the base budget appropriations within the respective departments in the Fiscal Year 2010 budget.

Board members are paid $10,000 annually, however, the Chairperson receives $12,000 annually and the Vice Chairperson receives $11,000 annually.

Removal of a Board Member
There is no statutory provision for the removal of Board members.

Other States
All crime victim compensation programs share a common goal of assisting as many eligible victims as possible through fair, consistent and timely application processing and decision making.

According to the National Association of Crime Victims Compensation Boards: http://www.nacvcb.org/articles/Overview

Programs obtain their funding from a number of different sources, but the states can be divided into two basic categories: those that receive the bulk of their funding from fees or charges that offenders pay, and those that depend on general-revenue appropriations from legislatures. More than four-fifths of the states are in the first category, gaining most of their income from offenders; in fact, in a large majority of states, no tax dollars are involved at all in either the administration of the program or in the awards given to victims.

There are a variety of methods that states use to award this money to victims and to pay claims. The follow information is from the National Association of Crime Victims Compensation Boards:

There are currently 23 state agencies that use the model where the state agency administrator and staff make the decisions about financial awards to victims in compliance with their state law and regulations and federal VOCA guidelines. These are agency administered programs and do not use Board members to make award decisions or hear appeals.

Eight states have a special compensation Board which hears appeals only. The staff makes the decisions regarding awards and the Board hears appeals based on a benefit denial.

Thirteen states [including Delaware] have a Board that makes all the benefit decisions. One of those thirteen states has the Board ratify staff decisions.

Five states have a model where the administrator and the Board share decision making, many times using a financial cutoff point. For example, in Minnesota most claims are reviewed and approved by staff; only cases with substantial eligibility are considered by the Board. In North Carolina the Director is authorized to make final decisions on applications for amounts not exceeding $7500. Applications for amounts $7500 and above are decided by the Board.

Two states use a Court of Claims to make all decisions.

There are also variations among the state agencies regarding where they are located in state government. Fifteen states have their victim’s compensation programs within the Department of Justice or Attorney Generals office. Ten agencies are located within the states criminal justice planning department in the Executive branch of government. Eight states have an independent agency like Delaware’s agency. (Alabama, Delaware, Hawaii, Kentucky, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Vermont)

Three states are part of workers compensation agencies. Three states are part of Claims Court.

The State of Pennsylvania agency is located as part of the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency, Office of Victim Services in the Executive Branch of state government. Professional staff makes decisions on awards and process the claims for payment using an automated case management system. Appeals are handled by staff attorneys.
Proposal by Governor Elect Markell for Delaware Office for Victims of Crime
During the 2008 campaign for Governor, Jack Markell issued a Public Safety and Crime Prevention Plan. In this Plan, Governor Elect Markell proposes establishing a Delaware Office for Victims of Crime. Below is an excerpt from that Plan: Jack Markell, Democrat for Governor, Public Safety and Crime Prevention Plan, pg. 5

… Most importantly, we should protect the rights of a crime victim to be notified of and present at all critical stages of the criminal justice process, the right to confer with prosecutors prior to the disposition of a case, the right to provide a victim impact statement at sentencing, the right to receive victim compensation and restitution, and an ability to enforce their rights if violated. I will increase awareness efforts to make sure that victims have the opportunity to seek the compensation they deserve from the Violent Crimes Compensation Board.

Crime victims should also have an advocate in state government, a “one-stop shop” for victims’ rights and services. Although crime victim-assistance programs are funded through the Delaware Criminal Justice Council, this agency provides few direct services to crime victims. Meanwhile, the state’s victim compensation program operates in an entirely different branch of government – the judiciary – while the Attorney General’s Office, a number of law enforcement, courts, and correctional agencies operate victim witness programs. Just as the federal government has done, along with numerous other states, I would seek to develop a Delaware Office for Victims of Crime. This centralized office not only would be responsible for the administration of state victim assistance and victim compensation funding and violence against women grant funds, it also would develop policies and programs to aid crime victims and support the work of victim advocates throughout the state. Both of these measures – stronger victims’ rights and the creation of a crime victims’ office – combined with better efforts to reduce crime and victimization, will help Delaware have a criminal justice system that is more fair and balanced and improve services to crime victims.

Staff
The Executive Director is a non merit position and serves at the pleasure of the Board. The Board is also supported by 7 full time merit position staff members. The HR manager for the Administrative Office of the Court provides assistance on personnel matters for the Board and staff. Currently there is one vacant position – Support Services Administrator, PG 15. Additionally, one casual seasonal worker performs the same functions as an Investigator and works up to 30 hours per week and one contract worker assists with accounting procedures and the budget.

The following positions exist:
Executive Director
(4) Full Time Investigators II
(1) Support Services Administrator
(1) Administrative Specialist II
(1) Administrative Specialist III.

When asked to highlight staff responsibilities and provide information as to what percentage of staff time is devoted to each of the responsibilities, the response indicated that “[t]he Executive Director is currently reviewing this and is making positive changes. There should be more definite information by the end of the year which can be shared with the Sunset Committee.” JSC Initial Questionnaire, pg. 13

When asked whether the Board is hindered by a lack of staff assistance, the following response was provided: JSC Initial Questionnaire, pg. 13

The new Executive Director was brought in to make positive changes and strengthen the Board’s operations including staff. Over the past year the Administrative Office of the Courts’ (AOC) HR manager has worked with the Board and staff on HR matters. The new Director is working on having the Board and the staff work together more closely on providing more effective services to victims and their families and to develop positive relationships with state and private agencies [that] also provide services to victims.

Staff Hiring and Training
Staff is recruited and hired through the Office of Management and Budget. The Executive Director works with the HR manager of the Administrative Office. New staff members receive on-the-job training and are also required to participate in other training programs. DELJIS training is required for all new staff to access the criminal justice computer system. Domestic Violence training programs are available to new staff. There are many in state seminars and conferences available to the Board and staff. One goal of the new Executive Director is to develop additional training for new staff and Board members. JSC Initial Questionnaire, pg. 13

Additionally, staff and Board members are encouraged to participate in related conferences both in state and nationally

Performance
Accomplishments
The Board listed the following as its most significant accomplishments: JSC Initial Questionnaire, pg. 9

Since 1974 the Violent Crimes Compensation Board has served as a resource for victims of violent crimes in Delaware.

The Board’s governing statute has been amended many times and new programs have been included, such as the Child short term counseling program.

The Board has followed the state legislation and the Federal VOCA guidelines closely while awarding the victims of violent crime the monies to pay for hardships imposed.

Payment for forensic medical examinations for victims of sexual offenses is now eligible for compensation.

Challenges
The Board is currently challenged by the following: JSC Initial Questionnaire, pgs.9-10

Lack of technology and automation.

The need for better accounting procedures for claims payment.

18% surcharge checks and other court restitution payments are being deposited into the VCCB state budget claims payment account. Some checks are being sent directly to the VCCB office and then deposited into the bank and then transferred into the VCCB budget. Other checks are being electronically deposited into the VCCB budget which is more efficient.

The paperwork and current procedures are outdated.

The application process and some Board procedures should be reviewed and updated.

Certain policies for the Board’s awards should be included in new Regulations.

The transition from the old fashioned way of doing business to modern office practices is a challenge for both staff and Board members.

Opportunities for Improvement
The Board indicated the following as areas for improvement: JSC Initial Questionnaire, pg. 9

The Board needs to revise the procedures for claims processing to include new technology and less paperwork. The Boards procedures have relied heavily on paper and old fashioned technology. The Board needs an automated claims tracking system which starts when a claim is filed and continues until payments are made. The Director is currently reviewing others state’s automated claims tracking systems.

The Boards offices need a client friendly call center which makes it easier to provide customer services to citizens who may need the services of the Board.

The Board website is being updated to include an on line user friendly application.

The Boards regulations, operating policies and procedures are being reviewed.

The Board is working to update the application form and improve work flow to reflect future automation and to ensure that payments are being processed accurately and timely.

The Board is clarifying the application process and covered benefits to make them easier to understand.

The Director is researching how other states award benefits to victims. When completed, the Director will propose changes to the Board.

Internal Performance Measures
The following information was provided in the response to the Initial Questionnaire: JSC Initial Questionnaire, pg. 11

The Board needs to develop a new automated client claims tracking system which replaces the current access data base and has the ability to communicate with the states accounting system (DFMS) to verify that the checks have been issued accurately and timely to pay the claims approved by the Board.

A number of providers and victims of violent crime last year were complaining that the VCCB was not paying claims in a timely fashion and not always accurately. There has been extensive work and training done to develop payment procedures which are timely and accurate and tied to the DFMS accounting system. The VCCB is charged with preparing an annual report to the Governor, State Auditor, and the General Assembly including the number of claims, the amount claimed and the amount of compensation awarded. The Federal Government has an annual reporting requirement at the end of the calendar year with reports on what money was awarded and for what programs.

Coordination of Services with other Agencies
The following was contained in the response to the Initial Questionnaire: JSC Initial Questionnaire, pgs. 10-11

The Board is a state agency under the auspices of the Administrative Office of the Courts. The Board’s new leadership has worked out a number of liaisons with state agencies so that going forward the Boards procedures include these liaisons. When the Board receives an application for benefits the Board staff determine whether there s a state police, county police or city police victim advocate worker involved, or whether there should be one. The investigator works together with the police based worker to gather the necessary information to complete the application.

Additionally, the Boards staff works with the Department of Health and Social Services to determine whether or not the applicant is covered through Medicaid. According to federal Victims of Crime Act guidelines, the Board must pay last behind other state and federal benefit programs and after any commercial health insurance which the victim has.

The Board also investigates other state benefits through the Departments of Labor including unemployment insurance, workers comp, and SSI and SSDI.

The Board staffs are also working with Family Court, especially the victims of domestic violence to determine is a PFA and other supporting documents such as the PFA petition might support the victim’s application for assistance.

The police reports are generally part of the files which the Board reviews. The Board also works closely with the Department of Justice and specifically the victim’s assistance staff. Many of the victims who apply for services are involved with the Department of Justice in the prosecution of the cases and related court procedures.

The Board receives and disburses Federal funds under the terms of VOCA, JSC Initial Questionnaire, pg. 8, and coordinates with the Criminal Justice Council, as they also receive federal VOCA grants. The Board indicated that the Criminal Justice Council has been very helpful in providing assistance regarding Federal grant and reporting requirements. The Board also has an ongoing relationship with the Delaware State Police Victim Special Services Fund, which provides emergency funding to crime victims.

The Board and its staff are working to develop closer working relationships with the police based advocates and other advocacy agencies to help victims of violent crime and their families. JSC Initial Questionnaire, pgs. 10-11
.
Penalty Assessment
In 1975, a mandatory “penalty assessment” was established, thus placing a surcharge on every fine, penalty, and forfeiture imposed and collected by the courts for criminal offenses, including traffic offenses. Over the years the surcharge has increased from the initial 10% to 15% and is currently at 18%. VCCB 32^nd Annual Report 2006, pg. 7 When a fine, forfeiture or penalty is suspended the surcharge is still collected. Fines of $50 on misdemeanor sex-offense convictions and $100 on felony sex-offense convictions offset costs of forensic rape exams.

The Victim Compensation Fund
Pursuant to statute, the penalty assessment is paid to the Prothonotary or the Clerk of the Court, then sent to the State Treasurer and then sent back to the VCCB to be deposited into a revenue holding account entitled ‘Victim’s Compensation Fund.’ VCCB 32^nd Annual Report 2006, pg. 7 Each June 30 any unencumbered balance in the Fund, over $6,000,000 shall be deposited into the General Fund. 11 Del. C. § 9012(b)

Reimbursements to the Victim’s Compensation Fund include court-ordered restitution, subrogation recoveries, probation interest, assessments on sexual offense convictions, and other miscellaneous revenue. VCCB 32^nd Annual Report 2006, pg. 7 The Board also receives federal funds pursuant to the federal Victims of Crime Act of 1984.

Claims and Compensation
Claims must be written, notarized and accurately describe the crime and circumstances that caused the injury, damage, or death. The application must disclose the names or all persons known to have been involved, as well as the amount claimed. The Board is required to initiate an internal investigation of each claim within thirty days of filing. Upon completion of its investigation, the Board will render an initial decision on the claim, and determine whether any compensation is to be awarded.

If the applicant is dissatisfied with the Board’s decision the applicant may request a hearing before the Board. If no hearing is requested within the prescribed amount of time, the Board’s decision is final. If a hearing is requested, the applicant is afforded an opportunity to present evidence to show why the Board’s initial decision should be reversed or modified. The Board must issue a final decision within ninety days of the hearing. An applicant dissatisfied with the final decision after the hearing may file an appeal with Superior Court. JSC Initial Questionnaire, pg. 14

Compensation
A person or estate may file a claim with the Board for all pecuniary loss that were a direct result of a crime in which the person sustained personal injury or death. However, the Board is not compelled to provide compensation in any case, nor is it compelled to award the full amount claimed. 11 Del. C. § 9005(3)

Pecuniary loss in instances of personal injury shall include medical expenses, including psychiatric care and mental health counseling of the victim or secondary victims; nonmedical remedial care and treatment rendered in accordance with a religious method of healing; hospital expenses, loss of past or future earnings because of a disability resulting from such personal injury. Pecuniary loss in instances of death of the victim include funeral and burial expenses, loss of support to the dependents of the victim and mental health counseling to secondary victims. JSC Initial Questionnaire, pg. 13

A maximum of $25,000 may be awarded on eligible claims. However, victims who are permanently and totally disabled may be awarded up to $50,000. Benefits paid for funeral medical and counseling expenses and lost wages or support is included in the $25,000. The limits the Board can award as compensation are: JSC Initial Questionnaire, pg. 13 and VCCP 32^nd Annual Report, pg. 6
Crime scene cleanup not to exceed $1000;
Temporary housing not to exceed $1500;
Moving expenses not to exceed $1000;
Funeral expenses not to exceed $8,500;
Up to $950 for Sexual Assault Nurse Exams;
Up to $1,200 for Child Counseling and Assessment Program;
Forensic medical examinations for victims of sexual offences;
Lost wages of parents or others charged with the care, custody or guardianship of a child victim while providing care to a child victim;
Housing related expenses, including but not limited to, mortgage, rent, security deposit, or other housing costs not to exceed 3 times the victims monthly housing cost.

Any payments the victim receives from or on behalf of the offender, from any insurer (except life insurance proceeds) or from the United States shall be deducted from the Board’s compensation award. 11 Del. C. § 9007

Statute provides that “if the victim bears any share of responsibility that caused the death or injury, the Board shall reduce the amount of compensation in accordance with its assessment of the degree of such responsibility attributable to the victim.” 11 Del. C. § 9006(c)

Statute also provides that payment of compensation shall not affect an individual’s right to recover damages in a civil action against the person convicted of the crime. 11 Del. C. § 9010(b)

Public Information
Pursuant to statute, the Board submits an Annual Report to the Governor and members of the General Assembly. Additionally, the Board sends out applications to agencies, hospitals and other locations that serve victims. The Board participates in a number of committees and organizations that have common missions and purposes as a way of a educating the public. In June 2008, the Executive Director and the Deputy Attorney General spoke at the Delaware Coalition Against Domestic Violence Annual Advocates’ Retreat in Rehoboth. The Executive Director indicated that public outreach will be a priority going forward and efforts will be made to speak to groups of victims’ advocates at conferences and meetings.

The Board indicated that it plans to develop additional methods of reaching out to the public and agencies that work with victims. JSC Initial Questionnaire, pg. 15
