This resource is made available by the Battered Women’s Justice Project
“This toolkit was created for advocates who assist survivors with the issuance, service, and enforcement of their protection orders. The purpose of the toolkit is to assist advocates in facilitating compliance with the “no fee” certification requirements by all jurisdictions. This toolkit contains the following documents:
- Fact sheets for advocates and law enforcement that explain the “no fee” provisions.
- A sample letter for advocates to facilitate service of an order without cost to the victim.
- A “no fee” chart on prohibited costs under the STOP and the ICJR grant certification requirements.”
