Mothers Against Drink Driving (MADD) is proud to present its 34th annual Honoring Heroes Recognition Banquet. This banquet is MADD’s signature opportunity to honor the law enforcement officers, first responders, and court personnel who diligently work to support our shared mission to end drunk driving, help fight drugged driving, support the victims of these violent crimes, and prevent underage drinking.
