speak about the impact the DUI crash has had on their lives. The
panel presents an often unheard perspective to DUI offenders. Judges
often include the requirement to attend a VIP as part of a sentence,
in the hopes that offenders will benefit from learning firsthand
about the trauma, physical pain, emotional suffering and
devastation, financial loss, anger and frustration that DUI victims
and family members commonly experience. See more at
