We offer a non-judgmental and informative DUI Victims panel. We follow the DUI Victims Panel guidelines enacted by the Washington State Legislature in 2011. The Victims Impact Panel (VIP) was created to reduce DUI (driving under the influence) injuries and fatalities in Washington State. Our panels offer personal stories from real people who have lost a loved one due to a DUI crash, received life changing injuries, or they were the cause of a DUI incident that forever changed their lives. Hearing the stories brings a realization for the consequences of driving while impaired.
Our speakers are all volunteers that give their time and share their stories in hope that they will make a difference and may save others from having to suffer the lifelong impacts from a single decision to drive impaired. Our speaker’s messages are from the heart and are spoken with the intention of having people realize that it can happen to anyone. They care deeply about making an impact on people to make better choices in the future.
The Snohomish County DUI Victims Panel is always looking for new speakers. If you or someone you know has been impacted by a DUI and are interested in speaking, please contact us at snocovictimspanel@gmail.com.
