VCF 2024 Annual Report

This report is a summary of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund’s 13th year, and highlights the Fund’s focus on an improved claimant experience. Throughout 2024, the VCF updated a number of processes and policies to ensure fairness and equity for all claimants, and maintained its strong and steady focus on outreach efforts. The VCF also launched its Interactive Presence Guide, an easy-to-use tool that helps claimants identify the specific documents they need to provide in order to prove presence at an eligible location based on their individual circumstances. In its first month, the guide was used by over 3,000 individuals. Rounding out the year’s significant progress is the new milestone of awarding $14.9 billion to over 65,600 claimants since the VCF re-opened in October of 2011.
