ABOUT MADD
Mothers
Against Drunk Driving is a nonprofit organization of over
400 chapters nationwide. Many of our members are indeed
mothers, but fathers, aunts, uncles, and so many others
can join too. In fact, the only requirement is that you
care enough to keep our roads free of impaired drivers -
those under the influence of alcohol. Our
mission is to stop drunk driving, support the victims of
this crime, and prevent underage drinking.
MADD
is not opposed to responsible use of alcohol by people over
21. Drinking is a personal choice that becomes a public
issue when driving is involved.
What
we do:
Our
activities include:
- Court
Monitoring
- MADD members observe court proceedings to ensure that
the laws relating to driving under the influence are enforced.
- Public
Education
- MADD members speak to groups of all sizes on the consequences
of driving under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.
- Victim
Assistance - MADD members offer emotional support
to victims by providing information and referrals. Victims
often find comfort talking to those who have experienced
a similar loss.
- Legislative
Reform
- MADD members work with legislators and law enforcement
officials to strengthen laws against alcohol and other
drug impaired driving.
MADD,
NH is committed to protecting you, your family, and your
friends from impaired drivers. That commitment is reinforced
by the donations and support of our members. Please visit
our membership page.
Together
we can make a difference!
