25th Anniversary of the Death Penalty Representation Project – Reporter Resources
The American Bar Association created the Death Penalty Representation Project in 1986. Our goals are to raise awareness about the lack of representation available to Death Row prisoners, to address this urgent need by recruiting competent volunteer attorneys, and to offer these volunteers training and assistance. Join the Project in celebrating our 25th Anniversary and the tremendous work of our volunteer firms.
