Crash Support Network

The Crash Support Network is a unique one-of-a-kind platform that provides a variety of helpful resources and is a Dedicated Not-For-Profit Award-Winning Organization that has been supporting crash survivors since 2019.  Victims continue to feel the impact long after the motor vehicle crash and when other people share similar experiences, there is an extraordinary level of empathy, encouragement and understanding which is comforting. My passion has always been to help others and has evolved through determination, perseverance and dedication.

My Vision is to build a community where survivors of motor vehicle crashes from all over the world feel supported, understood and inspired.
