New Jersey Dioceses Extend the Deadlines for Compensation Program

The New Jersey Dioceses of Camden, Metuchen, Trenton and Paterson, and the Archdiocese of Newark, have extended the deadlines for the registering and filing of clergy childhood sexual abuse claims under their “Independent Victim Compensation Program” (“IVCP”). The new deadlines are:

Registration Deadline: January 31, 2020

Claim Filing Deadline: February 15, 2020

The IVCP was launched on February 11, 2019 and became effective June 15, 2019. It is intended to provide CONFIDENTIAL financial compensation to eligible survivors of childhood sexual abuse perpetrated by Diocesan priests. The IVCP is operated by experienced administrators Kenneth Feinberg and Camille Biros and operates independently from the Dioceses and Archdiocese.
