About

While 2021 was difficult in many ways, it was an important year in the ever-growing movement to abolish the death penalty, not just here in the U.S. but also around the world. And it’s why I’m hoping you’ll join us at the Death Penalty Focus 30th (Virtual) Awards Event at 6 p.m. (Pacific), 9 p.m. (Eastern), Thursday, March 24, 2022, to honor the people and organizations whose tireless efforts to end capital punishment resulted in significant victories and steps forward last year.  We hope to see you there.  Please click on the link below to learn more, to register, and to support as you can.
