JUNEAU — Domestic violence shelters across Alaska are facing an unexpected budget shortfall, and many could be forced to close, officials warned the Alaska Legislature.
In impassioned testimony to the House Finance Committee last week, groups that aid domestic violence victims requested $6 million to fix a problem caused by a lack of federal funding. That request would be 0.13% of the state’s expected $4.3 billion operating budget, but the impact would be tremendous, the groups said.

Federal Funding Cut Jeopardizes Domestic Violence Shelters In Y-K Delta

Federal funding for domestic violence and women’s shelters from the Victims of Crimes Act, or VOCA, has been decreasing in recent years. The Council on Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault, or CDVSA, is an organization within the Alaska Department of Public Safety that directs federal funding to victim services programs within the state.
In a letter sent on April 1, CDVSA Executive Director Diane Casto wrote that VOCA funding would decrease by 34.6% from the previous year. This would affect shelters like Tundra Women’s Coalition and Emmonak Women’s Shelter in Fiscal Year 2022, which begins in July.
“Everyone was like ‘what is everybody going to do? What are the shelter programs going to do?’ It was devastating news,” said JoAnn Horn, director of Emmonak Women’s Shelter.
