Appeal

If a victim service program wishes to appeal CVAD’s findings, it must submit an appeal request form no later than 30 days following notice of the corrective action plan and/or sanctions.  The appeal request form should be mailed to:

CVAD Director
Office of the Attorney General of Iowa
Crime Victim Assistance Division
Lucas State Office Building
321 East 12th Street
Des Moines, IA 50319

The appeal form can also be uploaded into Iowa GVS, using the appeal component. 

The appeal will then be heard at the next scheduled CVAD Board meeting. The appellant will be provided notice of the meeting, the meeting agenda as well as the date, time and location of the meeting.  
The decision of the CVAD board shall be considered final.
