All of our 250 Volunteer Grief Mentors at ACCESS have lost loved ones in air disasters and we know first-hand how difficult this type of loss can be.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the loved ones of Erik & Tanya Nunn and Craig & Michele Wilson.

Heidi Snow founded ACCESS in 1996, with former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and Governor George Pataki after losing her fiancée aboard TWA Flight 800 in 1996. Since then, the organization has grown and we now have hundreds of trained Volunteer Grief Mentors who continue to help thousands of people manage their way through the unspeakable horrors of an aircraft tragedy.

Through our helpline and website we partner mothers to mothers, siblings to siblings, spouses to spouses, orphans to orphans…for as long as the grieving need support.
