In California, MADD provided supportive services to drunk and drugged driving victims to help them cope with the devastating impact of substance-impaired driving crashes. When tragedy strikes, victims need support. MADD prides itself on being one of the largest victim services organizations in the country. Part of those services includes ensuring a victim’s rights are maintained. From making a victim impact statement to notification of offender status, victims have rights thanks to the Victim Rights Act of 2004.

MADD CAlifornia programs

MADD California is responsible for the population of the State of California. This feat would never be accomplished without the volunteers involved with the Volunteer Speakers Bureau, which we consider to be an integral part of the success of MADD throughout the Nation. Each of our volunteers has a personal understanding of the ramifications that impaired driving can cause. They donate hundreds of hours out of their busy schedules to share their stories in hopes of saving the lives of others. They stand beside us at press events, participate in the “Every 15 Minutes” program, DUI checkpoints and help deliver school and probation department presentations. In 2022, our staff and volunteers traveled all over California delivering MADD’s core programs and services, all of which are free of charge to the public. We are able to offer free services due to the support from generous donations, grants, foundations, and collaborative sponsorships. With this support, our Volunteer Speakers Bureau provided prevention education presentations to thousands of youth, adults, and military members in our communities.

243 presentations POWER OF YOUTH This presentation empowers teens to take a stand and influence their peers against underage drinking and riding in a car with someone who has been drinking. 55 presentations POWER OF PARENTS This educational presentation influences parenting behavior to prevent underage drinking, maintain the minimum 21 drinking age in all 50 states and engage new supporters to carry on MADD's lifesaving work. 27 presentations TEEN INFLUENCERS This presentation uses select teens who serve as positive role models for choosing not to drink alcohol under the age of 21. 96 campaigns YOUTH-LED AWARENESS These awareness campaigns provide youth in high-risk and underserved areas the opportunity to develop messaging and programming to influence their peers and community against underage drinking and impaired driving.

Since 2012, MADD has reached almost 1.5 million teens, educating, and empowering them to make a positive difference in their lives and the lives of others by pledging to Take a Stand against underage drinking.

law enforcement & Prosecutor recognition awards

MADD’s Law Enforcement & Prosecutor Recognition Awards (LER) has received outstanding reviews since its inception. Every year, MADD honors law enforcement for the number of impaired driving arrests made annually along with first responders, prosecutors, probation officers, and MADD volunteers for their life-saving efforts as each impaired driver taken off the road is a potential life saved. We invite you to be a part of honoring these heroes across the country by supporting this year’s MADD’s Law Enforcement & Prosecutor Recognition Awards Ceremonies.

1,320 awards LAW ENFORCEMENT

MADD California recognized peace officers with a total of 52,477 DUI arrests at our 2022 Law Enforcement and Prosecutor Recognition events in California for their life-saving work in DUI enforcement and traffic safety.

Campaign to eliminate drunk driving

55 dui checkpoints CAMPAIGN TO ELIMINATE Participated in checkpoints with Law Enforcement throughout the state to distribute awareness materials.

Since its creation in 1980, MADD has worked side- by-side with law enforcement, launching the Campaign to Eliminate Drunk Driving in response to more than 13,000 people who were being killed each year. Fair and Equitable Law Enforcement is our first line of defense, and we support their efforts to identify and remove impaired drivers from our nation's roadways. These brave men and women put their lives at risk every day and are often victims of impaired drivers. MADD supports law enforcement heroes who keep our roads safe and we applaud their efforts to help us end drunk and drugged driving.

Driver Impact Program (DIP): In collaboration with law enforcement, DIP is a pilot program helping impaired, excessive speed, and/or distracted driving offenders recognize and internalize the lasting and long-term effects of reckless driving. The classes seek to create empathy and understanding of the tragedy, leaving a permanent impression that leads to changes in thinking and behavior with the goal of preventing future offenses.

tie one on for safety

Tie One On for Safety® is MADD's longest- running designated driver public awareness campaign. It works to save lives during one of the most dangerous times of year on our nation's roadways-the holiday season between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day.

boating under the influence

Boating under the influence accounts for 25% of all deaths on California waterways

Over a 2-year time period for Northern California, there were 487 boating crashes, that led to 261 injuries and 66 fatalities.

Alcohol is even more hazardous on the water. The marine environment, motion, vibration, engine noise, sun, wind and spray all accelerate the impairment effect. In fact, at .035 percent, a boater’s ability to operate a boat is impaired. MADD works with the Michael and Ina Korek Foundation for the boating under the influence awareness campaign and all the work we do is in memory of Korek family members, Sophie and Cynthia who were killed by drunk boater in 2012 on Lake Englebright.
