Trust is a process

Editorial policy

Health-adjacent information can help people—or harm them. At launch, MAD AF publishes source-backed explainers with visible citations and clear limits; it does not claim clinical review.

Primary sources first

We favor public-health agencies, regulators, peer-reviewed research, and the organization responsible for a program or service. Every educational guide lists its sources.

How launch articles are prepared

Automation may help collect, organize, or draft material. Launch articles are labeled in the content record as source-checked, cite their public-health sources, and are attributed to the MAD AF Editorial Team rather than to an invented person or credential.

Resources are verified, not endorsed

A directory listing means our records identify a real service and source; it is not a guarantee of availability, quality, clinical outcome, price, or fit. Contact providers directly before relying on a listing.

Corrections and updates

We preserve source and verification dates and correct material mistakes. The contact and resource-suggestion status pages will show when staffed review channels open.

Clear boundaries

MAD AF is a mission-driven company, not a medical provider, emergency service, charity, or nonprofit. Our content is informational and does not replace professional care.
