Keep your home address private

Indiana's Address Confidentiality Program, run by the Office of the Attorney General, sends your first-class mail to a secure substitute address. The mail is then forwarded to your new home.1

  • The substitute address is also used for state and local government services, such as driver's license, vehicle, voter, and school records.1
  • It is for survivors who fear for their safety, including survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, or human trafficking. A parent or guardian can apply for a child, and a guardian can apply for an adult in their care.1
  • Your application must be signed by a trained victim advocate.1

Help for victims of crime

The Indiana Criminal Justice Institute runs the Violent Crime Victim Compensation Program. It helps eligible victims of violent crime with certain costs, such as medical bills and lost wages. The program decides who qualifies.2

Find a lawyer

This site does not give legal advice. For advice about your situation, talk to a licensed Indiana lawyer.

  • The Indiana State Bar Association does not run a lawyer referral service. It has an online directory of its member lawyers that you can search.3
  • If you have a low income, you may be able to get free legal help. The Indiana courts and the State Bar point people to Indiana Legal Help, a statewide site with legal information, forms, and a list of free or low-cost legal aid. The courts also point to Indiana Free Legal Answers, where volunteer lawyers answer civil legal questions online for people who qualify.4
