    Use your voice to help create safer communities.

    As an Advocacy Volunteer with Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), you'll help advocate for policies that prevent impaired driving, support victims and survivors, and make our communities safer. By engaging with lawmakers, sharing information with your community, and supporting MADD's public policy efforts, you'll play an important role in creating meaningful change.

    MADD's Legislative Action Team is a group of volunteers who work alongside MADD staff to advance legislation that addresses impaired driving and strengthens support for victims and survivors. Volunteers influence laws, help raise awareness, educate decision-makers, and encourage community involvement around important traffic safety issues.

    What You'll Do

    Working alongside MADD staff and fellow advocates, you will:

    • Learn about impaired driving legislation and MADD's policy priorities.
    • Communicate with elected officials and community leaders about important traffic safety issues.
    • Share advocacy opportunities and updates with your personal networks.
    • Participate in advocacy campaigns, meetings, and legislative outreach efforts.
    • Help build community support for policies that prevent impaired driving and save lives.

    Volunteer Details & Benefits

    This opportunity is a great fit for individuals interested in public policy, advocacy, civic engagement, community outreach, traffic safety, and nonprofit leadership.

    As a volunteer, you will:

    • Gain experience in grassroots advocacy and legislative engagement.
    • Learn how public policy impacts communities and victims of impaired driving.
    • Develop skills in communication, outreach, and civic participation.
    • Join a dedicated team working to create safer roads and stronger communities.

    Volunteer Requirements:

    • Location: Minnesota, South Dakota, and North Dakota (Virtual Opportunity)
    • Ages 18+

    Whether you're new to advocacy or have experience engaging with lawmakers, MADD provides resources, training, and support to help you make an impact.

    If you're passionate about preventing impaired driving and want to help shape policies that protect our communities, we'd love to have you join MADD's Legislative Action Team.
