Nevada District Attorneys Association

The Nevada District Attorneys Association (NvDAA) has been supporting prosecuting attorneys for over 50 years.  Originally formed in 1968 as the Nevada Prosecuting Attorneys Association, NvDAA incorporated in 2018 to provide a broader forum for District Attorneys to meet and share ideas that promote best practices and effective strategies focused on improving Nevada’s criminal justice system. Many of our members represent the voice of prosecutors on numerous statewide committees and commissions. These efforts are critical to monitoring and evaluating legislative and judicial proposals that impact public safety. NvDAA’s District Attorneys also advocate in favor of laws and policies that have a positive impact on crime, as well as those that safeguard victims’ rights. Additionally, the association oversees and supports the Nevada Prosecution Best Practices Committee, which is responsible for establishing model practices for all of Nevada’s prosecuting agencies and developing tools for enhancing the skills of prosecutors at all levels. In furtherance of these goals, our members provide training and resources to victim advocacy groups, bar associations, service organizations, students, and law enforcement agencies across the State on an array of criminal justice and legal topics. 

The NvDAA meets several times a year to discuss trends, share information and ideas, and to develop strategies to improve Nevada’s criminal justice process. The Association closely monitors legislative and judicial policy that impacts public safety and works to promote awareness about these issues.  We invite you to learn more about the NvDAA and the Nevada Prosecutors Best Practices Committee.
