Death Penalty Focus Website
Join a DPF Chapter!
Death Penalty Focus is a non-profit organization dedicated to the abolition of capital punishment through grassroots organizing, research, and the dissemination of information about the death penalty and its alternatives.
We believe:
- that the death penalty is an ineffective and simplistic response to the serious and complex problem of violent crime.
- Diverting attention and financial resources away from the death penalty and towards preventative measures would actually increase personal safety.
- the United States should join the growing community of nations throughout the world who have already abolished capital punishment.
