The Concord Monitor is reporting on the experiences of survivors of Youth Development Center abuse as they navigate the claims administration and civil litigation processes.

We need your help to do this reporting. If you are a survivor who is engaged in this process, we want to hear from you. The information you share with us will remain anonymous unless you choose to speak publicly.

We are interested, in particular, in the process of navigating the claims administration process. For those who have yet to receive a settlement, we want to hear about the experience of waiting now that the process has stalled and the law has changed.

If you have received pre-settlement funding to cover living expenses while waiting for your case to proceed, we want to hear from you. We are interested in speaking to anyone who has received pre-settlement funding in other contexts, as well, such as in personal injury cases.

The conversation will not involve questions about your abuse.

Even if you think you don’t have much to share, we would be grateful to speak with you.

If you are willing to speak with reporter Jeremy Margolis, you can contact him at 603-369-3321, jmargolis@cmonitor.com or on Signal at jmargolis.64.

You can also fill out the confidential form below. The information you provide will not be shared.
