Death Penalty Focus is one of the largest nonprofit organizations in the country. It was founded in 1988 with the belief that the death penalty is an ineffective, cruel, and simplistic response to the serious and complex problem of violent crime. They hope to abolish capital punishment using public education; grassroots and political organizing; original research; media outreach; local, state and nationwide coalition building.
