The Voice of America’s Prosecutors

Formed in 1950, the National District Attorneys Association is the oldest and largest national organization representing state and local prosecutors in the country. With more than 6,000 members representing over two-thirds of the state and local prosecutors’ offices, NDAA is recognized as the leading source of national expertise on the prosecution function and is a valuable resource for the media, academia, government, and community leaders. NDAA’s mission is to provide state and local prosecutors with the knowledge, skills, and support they need to ensure that justice is done and that public safety rights are protected.

NDAA's Mission:

NDAA’s mission is to be the voice of America’s prosecutors and to support their efforts to protect the rights and safety of the people by providing its members with the knowledge, skills, and support they need to ensure justice is attained. NDAA remains committed to serving as the voice of America’s prosecutors and ensuring that justice is achieved for the millions of Americans who rely on our members.

As the largest association of prosecutors in the country, NDAA recognizes the vital role that prosecutors play in the safety of local communities. Prosecutors are responsible for ensuring that justice is carried out in a fair and equitable manner, protecting the rights of victims, and holding accountable those who violate the law. NDAA’s mission is to support prosecutors in their efforts to fulfill these responsibilities and to promote a criminal justice system that is fair, effective, and accountable.

Through training, technical assistance, and other resources, NDAA provides prosecutors with the tools they need to do their jobs effectively and ethically. We also work to raise public awareness about the important role that prosecutors play in our criminal justice system and to advocate for policies and practices that support the fair and effective administration of justice.

We believe that every American has the right to live in a safe and just society, and we are committed to working with our members and partners to make that vision a reality.
