SADD's mission:
To provide students with the best prevention tools possible to deal with the issues of
underage drinking, other drug use, impaired driving and other destructive decisions.

SADD is an inclusive, not an exclusive, organization. SADD recognizes that the pressures on
young people to drink, use illicit drugs and engage in other unhealthy behaviors are strong. SADD
seeks not to punish or alienate those students who make unfortunate choices but rather aims
to inform, educate, support and empower young people to make positive decisions in their lives.
