We are the only organization in Alabama dedicated to supporting volunteer attorneys to represent people on Death Row during the critical stage after trial when cases are re-examined for errors and new evidence.

Our mission is to close the gap in Alabama’s broken capital defense system, and our vision is to end the death penalty.

What We Do

We Support

We train, recruit, and equip volunteer attorneys with the tools, guidance, and resources needed to handle complex death penalty cases after conviction.

We Defend

We ensure that people on Alabama’s death row have skilled lawyers who thoroughly re-examine their cases, investigate what went wrong, and fight to protect their lives.

We Advocate

We work to strengthen fairness in Alabama’s capital system by supporting meaningful review, accountability, and access to justice.
