MADD will address your concerns the best we can and then refer you to a victim advocate. Many of our trained advocates have been crash victims themselves. MADD does not provide financial assistance, but your victim advocate can help you apply for Crime Victims Compensation funds.

Your victim advocate can inform you about criminal justice procedures in your community and, in many cases, go to court with you. Your victim advocate may be able to provide a list of professional counselors, civil attorneys, and clergy in your community who are skilled at working with crash victims. Your local MADD chapter may offer victim support groups where you can meet other families who share your experience.
