The association, which serves as the chief lobbying arm for California’s district attorneys, city attorneys, and their prosecutors, has become a leading voice to stiffening the Golden State’s loose criminal justice system to combat soaring crime.

Ward is the first-ever Tulare County District Attorney to lead the prosecutor association.

“It has been my distinct privilege to have served on the CDAA board and today being sworn-in as president. CDAA a remarkable association that prepares prosecutors to better serve their communities and the victims they fight for in courtrooms across California. I look forward to working with prosecutors, investigators, advocates and staff to better our system of justice and give voice to those impacted by crime,” Ward said in a release.

Ward served as First Vice President of the association for the 2021-2022 term. He is the first ever Tulare County representative to helm the advocacy group.
