On behalf of the Board of Directors and the Staff at MADD-RI, thank you for visiting our website. Rhode Island ranks among the highest states for alcohol related deaths over the past several years and this behavior is not acceptable and should be tolerated by Rhode Islanders. We believe that by working with law enforcement, our political leaders and the community we can change that trend. MADD-RI will continue to provide services and support to all victims of drunk driving and we will work towards the elimination of drunk driving. Drinking and Driving is a choice far too many make in Rhode Island which places everyone on the roadways at risk. MADD-RI continues with the work of educating our young adults, providing victim services and advocating for the best practices that will save lives and reduce injuries. With your support financially and your advocacy, MADD-RI will continue with the mission to eliminate drunk driving.
Thank you for visiting the website and your interest in MADD-RI. Please consider assisting us in our mission.
Be safe and responsible while driving on our roadways.
Steven M. Pare
Colonel (ret.)
