Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) is an organization based in Philadelphia, PA, dedicated to ending drunk driving, combating drugged driving, supporting victims of these crimes, and preventing underage drinking. MADD champions anti-drunk driving technology and leads prevention efforts across communities in the U.S.
Established in 1980, MADD has made significant strides in reducing drunk driving deaths by approximately 40% and has saved nearly 475,000 lives through its advocacy and support services.
