I Want To File a Claim for the NYC Gender Motivated Violence Act (GMVA)
If you or someone you love is a survivor of gender-motivated violence in New York City, time is running out to seek justice.
Under the NYC Gender Motivated Violence Act (GMVA), survivors of sexual assault only within the five boroughs of New York, can file civil lawsuits against their abusers and the institutions that enabled them— if the abuse happened after 2001. This critical window closes on February 28, 2025.
The GMVA gives survivors the power to hold perpetrators accountable for assault, battery, harassment, and other acts of violence rooted in gender-based bias. It allows for significant financial compensation, helping survivors regain control and seek the justice they deserve.
