Palmetto Journey of Hope

In 2022, SCADP began an inaugural speaking tour across South Carolina through an organization called Journey of Hope. The mission of Journey of Hope is to empower the voices of murder victim family members towards the abolition of the death penalty. Together with other anti-death penalty voices (former death row residents, death row family members, department of corrections employees, capital defense lawyers, and law enforcement), Journey of Hope has sparked legislative change across the country. The Palmetto Journey of Hope is an event that will touch your heart and motivate you to action. Check below to see if there's an event coming near you!
