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 2023 Law Enforcement & Prosecutor Recognition Awards Ceremonies.

In 2022, MADD California recognized nearly 1,800 law enforcement officers, prosecutors, first responders, and community groups for their dedication to impaired driving enforcement and prosecution. MADD is thrilled to honor the tremendous job they perform of making our streets safer and we invite you to take a stand alongside MADD to honor these heroic individuals. Funds raised will also support the continuation of MADD California’s educational programs and victim services, provided at no cost to local communities. Hosting an LER event supports MADD with raising its branding and assisting in uniting California to support the work of law enforcement officers and prosecutors in keeping our communities and roadways safe.

This year, each LER event in California will be attended by agency directors, sheriffs, chiefs of police, law enforcement officers, government officials, district and city attorneys, impaired driving survivors, and victims eager to show appreciation and support to all awardees. Every day, our partners go above and beyond the call of duty to stop the crime of impaired driving, and by doing so, they spare more families the pain of losing someone to a crime that is 100% preventable.

Stand with #OneMADDCalifornia to create a future of NO MORE VICTIMS. Join in the celebration of awarding individuals for their life-saving efforts.
