MAPDA to Be Recognized at the 2026 Caron Washington DC Gala

MAPDA is honored to be recognized at the 2026 Caron Washington DC Gala, where the organization will receive the prestigious Richard J. Caron Award of Excellence. This recognition reflects MAPDA’s unwavering commitment to protecting families, strengthening communities, and taking action to address the substance abuse crisis.

This award represents the collective efforts of everyone who has helped build MAPDA into a national movement. From mothers and families to advocates, policymakers, community leaders, volunteers, donors, and partners, this recognition belongs to all those who refuse to stand by and are committed to protecting families and saving lives.

MAPDA and Caron share a commitment to strengthening communities and advancing action to address the substance abuse crisis. Together, our organizations are working toward a future where fewer families experience the devastating impact of addiction and more people have access to support.

We are deeply grateful to Caron for this incredible honor and for its leadership in transforming lives through compassionate care. We look forward to celebrating alongside Caron on October 15th as we continue working to confront the substance abuse crisis.
