| For more than 20 years,
SADD has been committed to empowering young people to lead education and
prevention initiatives within their schools and communities. Founded as
Students Against Driving Drunk in 1981 in Wayland, Massachusetts, SADD
has grown to become the nation’s dominant peer-to-peer youth prevention
organization with thousands of chapters in high schools. In 1997, in response
to request from SADD students themselves, SADD expanded its mission and
name, and now sponsors chapters called Students Against Destructive Decisions.
SADD continues to endorse a firm “no use” message related
to use of alcohol and other drugs. With its expanded focus, SADD now highlights
prevention of all destructive behaviors and attitudes that are harmful
to young people, including underage drinking, substance abuse impaired
driving, violence and suicide.
SADD’s unique approach involves young people delivering education and prevention messages to their peers through school-and community-wide activities and campaigns responsive to the needs of their particular locations. Projects may include peer-led classes and theme-focused forums, teen workshops, conferences and rallies, prevention education and leadership training, and awareness-raising activities and legislative work. Independent studies have shown that students in schools with an established SADD chapter are more and informed about the risks of underage drinking, other drug use and impaired driving. Students in schools with a SADD chapter are also more likely to hold attitudes reflecting positive reasons not to use alcohol. CHECK
