MADD: Structure

MAAD actually has, in some states we still have chapters, but here in North Carolina we have what we call Community Action sites. Used to be, the old structure, we had every county had it's own MAAD independent chapter. Now we've done it, kind of following the guides of other organizations, we do them in markets. So like a similar media market, or judicial market. We do them in clusters of two, three counties together. The ways that people can get involved is they can actually go to MAAD.org, our national website, and put in their zip code or their city and it will actually show them the closest chapter to their home. With that, there's a version on there that people can go in and just click of what they're looking to participate in, whether it's doing speeches at churches or setting up booths and different things like that. They can just select that. That will then send a email to the national office which is then returned to us on the local level, and then we just hook them up and let them know, "Look, we've got this special event that we've got going on with maybe Governor's Highway Safety, or with a court monitoring where we need some people to help support us, or even a checkpoint at night". So we then say, "Okay, you're in our database. You're getting our newsletter. You're getting our email blast of all the different programs and services we have to offer and how they can help support us and get involved on the local level as well".
