The Death Penalty Information Center exists to make time­ly and accu­rate infor­ma­tion about the death penal­ty avail­able to the pub­lic free of cost, which is why you won’t find a pay­wall or adver­tis­ing here. DPI is a non­prof­it, inde­pen­dent orga­ni­za­tion that receives no fed­er­al fund­ing. We rely entire­ly on dona­tions from peo­ple like you to pro­vide crit­i­cal data and analy­sis about the death penal­ty so you have the facts. We place news and trends about the death penal­ty in con­text, and push back on myths, secre­cy, and false nar­ra­tives. If the truth mat­ters to you, please con­sid­er mak­ing a one-time or month­ly sus­tain­ing dona­tion to pow­er our work.

DPI has a SILVER rat­ing from Candid, for­mer­ly, GuideStar and the Foundation Center.
