Mothers Against Drunk Driving

Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) is a non-profit organization based in Irmo, SC, dedicated to eradicating drunk driving, fighting drugged driving, and supporting the victims of these preventable tragedies. Since its establishment in 1980, MADD has been pivotal in reducing drunk driving deaths by approximately 40%, saving nearly 475,000 lives and supporting close to one million victims.

MADD champions the adoption of anti-drunk driving technology in all new vehicles by 2030 through the HALT Act, a move expected to save over 10,000 lives annually and prevent countless injuries. Through various programs like Power of Parents, Power of Youth, and court monitoring initiatives, MADD continues to spearhead prevention efforts across the nation by educating communities about substance use dangers and empowering individuals to make safe choices.

With a network of over 65 offices in the U.S., Puerto Rico, and Canada, MADD provides critical services to victims and their families, including emotional support, guidance through legal processes, and access to financial resources. The organization's ultimate goal is to create a future where impaired driving is a thing of the past, ensuring roads and communities are safe for all individuals.
