Death Row Support Project We're an organization that facilitates pen pal relationships between those on death row and those on the outside. Check us out! https://linktr.ee/drsp.cob

Since 1978, the Death Row Support Project has been facilitating one-to-one correspondence with people sentenced to death. During that time thousands of individuals from around the world have responded to the challenge of connecting with those on death row. A person confined to death row often spends up to 23 hours each day alone in a small cell—for years and sometimes decades. The isolation can be crippling. Those with support systems of friends and families say that such connections are vital for maintaining physical and mental health in the stark conditions of prison. Letters can bring a ray of hope to the darkness of death row. And for those on the outside, learning to know just one prisoner can dispel some of the misconceptions and fears about prisons and the people locked away inside of them.

Pray for those holding the power of life and death in their hands.
