Saturday October 24th is the first-ever National Life Without Parole Awareness Day. Together, our coalition of 27 regional and national organizations is bringing extreme sentencing reform and human dignity to the forefront. This is a 100% decentralized, digital day of action; no physical travel or gathering required, just a synchronized, powerful collective voice across our networks.
To prepare our supporters, advocates, and networks for action this weekend, the official social media toolkit and digital media folder are now live.
