Senator Scott Brown (R-Massachusetts)
Scott Maloney tells a story of a tragedy that happened in his life and how he turned that tragedy into helping people realize the dangers of alcohol use. His sense of humor and ability to connect with the audience makes him a good speaker that can reach a diverse group of people. He received a standing ovation upon completion of his speech and had many people stop to congratulate him on his recovery after the event. Auburn High School gives Scott Maloney a 4 star rating!
Bill Garneau (Athletic Director, Auburn High School, Auburn, Massachusetts)
Scott Maloney’s story is powerful and his message of tragedy and triumph is one that every high school and college student should hear.
Jason Zeleski (Clark University, Dean of Students)
Scott blends his passion for making people laugh with his desire to spare other college kids the same fate, and spare parents that devastating, feared call in the middle of the night.
Jean Hill (Reporter, Worcester Telegram & Gazette)
He relates to audiences by drawing them in with laughter and by sharing his painful, yet educational and finally up-lifting story. Scott Maloney speaks a message about appreciating life. His audience walks away with a greater understanding of why not to take one’s life for granted and the importance of remaining positive throughout it all. I would recommend a speech from Scott Maloney to anyone.
Professor Benjamin Nichols (Anna Maria College Professor)
In the spring semester, I was present at a speech Scott gave to the Becker College students. Scott spoke to the students about alcohol abuse. He was able to relate his own personal experience in a way that really resonated with the students. Scott got the message across with humor and emotion. I feel that Scott would make an excellent candidate to speak to students (high school as well as college).
Paula O’Connor (Becker College Registrar)
Scott's presentation makes you realize how fragile life is and how powerful strong will, support and determination of friends and family members are. Point well made!

Bristol Plymouth High School
Scott came to Boston Medical Center to meet with one of our patients who had suffered a brain injury. Scott's message came through loud and clear. Scott is able to reach patients and their families at a personal level and offer hope, encouragement, and a sense of the realities that come with brain injury. Scott is caring, empathetic, genuine, and adds appropriate humor to help ease both patients and their families at such a difficult time in all of their lives.
Eric Peloquin CTRS (Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist)
Mr. Maloney is a powerful and dedicated speaker and I am sure he will definitely be the one to save lives through his talent and experience. Scott delivered believable information because he had lived through a traumatic experience and cared enough about others to relive his experience for their benefit.

Mr. Maloney is a regular speaker at our Driving Schools, in which he demonstrates great effort to warn teenagers about the negative effects of Drinking. We are looking forward to working with Scott for a long time.
Goran Antunovic (Manager - Labonte's Auto School)
The story that he told really hit home with the students. This is not something that they wanted any of their friends or family to go through. For a young man to go through what he endured, and then to speak about it in front of hundreds of students, was very inspiring.
Daniel O’Connor (Becker College Area Coordinator)
... his charisma and his enthusiasm for life drew them in to his story. It was evident that the students felt comfortable in his presence and were touched by his words. Scott concluded his visit with a question and answer session and the students participated with genuine interest.
Valerie Salerno (Coyle & Cassidy Regional High School Teacher)
Scott Maloney came to speak to our seniors and juniors about the dangers of underage drinking. His message was not preachy, but poignant. He talked about the decisions we make and how they can affect our lives and the lives of our loved ones.
Jamie Vitonis (King Philip Regional High School Assistant Principal)
Scott Maloney is an inspiration for all students, staff, and faculty members. He has gone through hell and has lived to tell about it. He injects humor in his delivery but then he captures his audience with his true compelling story...enough to make the biggest football player whimper. His message is powerful. Scott Maloney should be invited to speak at every business/education seminar as a motivational speaker.
Robert Guillemette (King Philip Regional High School Teacher)
Scott's testimony at the Health Education Bill hearing was extremely compelling. It was an integral part in making the hearing a success. I think it is safe to say that everyone in that crowded room was touched by Scott's personal account, and impressed by his honesty and bravery.
Courtney Howard (CARE for Youth & Education Policy)
His sociable personality was one that his crowd felt comfortable with; students also thought of him as a profound friend who was easy to talk to and a great comedian as well. The way Scott intertwined his powerful message and his comedy was like no other inspirational speech I have heard before.
Katie (class of '10)
Scott had a lot of courage speaking in front of the group like that. It really made me think about my own actions. What if I were to do something like that? I have no family support. So if I were him I would have been dead because my family wouldn’t be there to push the doctors. For someone to bring tears to my eyes in class definitely states that an impact was made. I really enjoyed the speech
Angelina (class of '09)
Scott's ability to make us laugh, while still proving his point allowed us to really think about the choices we make and the consequences that could follow those choices. I think he did a very good job with the speech he made at my school.
Tricia (class of '08)
Scott definitely made an impact on all of the students, and I will never forget his story. He is a great role model and positive influence for students everywhere.
