AICDAC earns service award

The NLLEA is a nonprofit membership-based association with more than 1,600 members. Membership represents federal, state and local law enforcement agencies from more than 40 states and the District of Columbia.

The NLLEA is governed by a member elected executive board. Part of the mission of the NLLEA is to improve the standards of liquor law enforcement and foster an environment of collaboration between law enforcement agencies.

At the conference, several agencies received awards for their hard work and dedication to the field of alcohol law enforcement.

The theme of this year’s conference was: building trust among stakeholders for safer communities. The general sessions and workshops focused on the ever-evolving alcohol market place with increased alcohol access points, increased violence in and around licensed alcohol establishments and the leadership, compliance skills, technology, training and collaboration needed for real solutions.

AICDAC was selected for this year’s John W. Britt Community Service award. The NLLEA John W. Britt Community Service award is given to a non-law enforcement agency or entity that makes a significant contribution to the efforts of liquor and/or tobacco enforcement and demonstrates program effectiveness through underlying efforts and practices.

The AICDAC is an exemplary example of programming and partnerships that have made and continue to make contributions to enhance the efforts of liquor enforcement and raise awareness in the prevention of underage drinking through environmental strategies.

The dedication by AICDAC in building relationships with the Pennsylvania State Police Bureau of Liquor Control Enforcement (BLCE) and educating their communities on the risks associated with underage drinking makes this organization the ideal recipient of the NLLEA John W. Britt Community Service award.
