Students Against Destructive Decisions is a peer-to-peer youth education and substance abuse use prevention organization in the
USA, with over 10,000 chapters in middle schools, high schools, and colleges.SADD was founded as "Students Against Driving Drunk" at
Wayland High School in
Wayland, Massachusetts, in
1981 after two Wayland High School hockey players were killed in separate car crashes. The students were motivated to challenge the culture in which drinking and driving was accepted. Originally, SADD's mission was to help young people say "No" to drinking and driving. In 1997, SADD expanded its mission from preventing intoxicated driving to preventing the consumption of alcohol or illegal drugs and other problems and adopted a new name, "Students Against Destructive Decisions." 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.
