From the Fund deposits available for victim assistance grants, each state grantee receives a base amount of $500,000, except for the territories of Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, and American Samoa, which are eligible to receive a base amount of $200,000. After the victim compensation allocations are determined, the remaining Fund deposits are allocated to victim assistance grants based upon the state’s population in relation to all other states, as determined by current census data.
