South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson has announced more than $26 million in funding to support victims of crime across the state.
During a stop in Spartanburg, Wilson shared that $7 million of that funding will go directly to Upstate counties. The grants will support nonprofit organizations that provide advocacy, emergency shelters, transitional housing, and medical care to victims of domestic violence, child abuse, human trafficking, and more.
These funds—sourced from federal and state resources—were approved by the Public Safety Coordinating Council and are expected to go into effect starting October 1.
