About us
Road Trauma Support Group NSW was established by family members who have lost loved ones due to criminal road crashes. Supported by the NSW Government and in partnership with NSW Police, RTSGNSW offers specialised trauma-informed grief counselling, peer support, and ongoing care while advocating passionately for legislative and systemic changes that ensure safer roads for everyone.
We aim to transform the support landscape for families devastated by road crimes by facilitating substantial reforms in road safety laws and enforcement. Our services extend beyond crisis intervention, understanding that the impacts of road trauma are long-lasting. We provide ongoing support through monthly peer-support meetings and access to a network of counselling services, helping individuals navigate their journey of healing in a supportive community setting.
In our pursuit of justice, RTSGNSW actively campaigns for judicial reforms to ensure that road safety laws are stringent enough to act as a true deterrent against negligence on the roads. By leveraging evidence-based research and real-world experiences, we push for legislative changes that are both impactful and achievable.
For immediate support or to learn more about our advocacy and services, contact us at our Road Trauma Helpline at 1800 808 384 or via email at info@rtsgnsw.org.au.
