Death Penalty Focus

For over 25 years Death Penalty Focus has been committed to the abolition of the death penalty through public education, grassroots organizing and political advocacy, media outreach, and domestic and international coalition building. We believe that the death penalty is an ineffective, cruel, and simplistic response to the serious and complex problem of violent crime. It institutionalizes discrimination against the poor and people of color, diverts attention and financial resources away from preventative measures that would actually increase public safety, risks the execution of innocent people, and does not deter crime.

How we helped

Support from Lush helps DPF educate the public about the horrors of capital punishment and moves us closer to our goal of abolition around the world.
