TAC-Funded Psychology Support After an Accident

If you’ve been injured in a transport accident, you may be eligible for fully funded psychological support through Transport Accident Commission (TAC).

We help you recover mentally, emotionally, and physically — not just “cope.”

If your claim is approved, TAC may cover:

  • Psychology sessions

  • Counselling and mental health support

  • Trauma recovery treatment
