The PASS Awards (Prevention for a Safer Society) is the only national recognition of print and broadcast journalists, TV news and feature reporters, producers, and writers, and those in film and literature who try to focus America’s attention on our criminal justice system, juvenile justice system, and child welfare systems in a thoughtful and considerate manner.

NCCD established the PASS Awards to commemorate the media’s success in illuminating the stories about people and programs that promise to protect children against neglect and abuse, and against involvement in crime.
