VICTORIA – Organizations dedicated to community-safety projects in British Columbia are encouraged to submit applications for the 2023-24 civil forfeiture grant program.
This year, organizations can submit applications for projects in the following funding streams:
The Civil Forfeiture Office (CFO) works to remove profits from unlawful activity by taking away the proceeds from, and assets used in, criminal activity to reinvest them in community-safety and crime-prevention initiatives.
The civil forfeiture grant program provides one-time funding to support community-based projects using the proceeds from the civil-forfeiture process. Applicants to the grant program will be notified of the results by April 2024.
Applications are open from Oct. 11 until Nov. 22, 2023.
