Kevin Quinlan was a pioneering highway safety advocate and impaired driving expert\u00a0who worked at NHTSA and&#160;NTSB.<\/p>\n<p>One of the award recipients was the Honorable John S. Kennedy, who established the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scramsystems.com\/programs\/drunk-driving\/target-25-programs\/\">nationally-recognized Target 25 Program<\/a> in York County, PA. Since launching in 2012, the program has\u00a0changed the county&#8217;s\u00a0pretrial handling of repeat DUI\u00a0offenders\u00a0through\u00a0supervised bail and continuous alcohol monitoring, to specifically promote public safety. As a result of Target 25, York County has experienced a 90% reduction in the number of DUI offenders who\u00a0are arrested for a subsequent DUI offense within the same&#160;year.<\/p>\n<p>Judge Kennedy has been responsible for a number of innovative programs since joining the\u00a0Court of Common Pleas of York County in 1996.\u00a0In 1997, Judge Kennedy helped establish the York County Drug Treatment Court, the second drug treatment court in Pennsylvania. In 2002, he helped\u00a0create the first Reentry Court Program in the state. This program was intended to help establish a working relationship between the State Department of Corrections, State Probation and Parole, and county agencies to help incarcerated offenders reintegrate into society. Judge Kennedy currently presides over the York County Mental Health, Drug, and DUI Treatment Courts, and he is also the Orphans&#8217; Court Judge.
