Unitarian Universalists for Alternatives to the Death Penalty was organized in November, 1996 (as Unitarian Universalists Against the Death Penalty) and is an Independent Affiliate of the Unitarian Universalist Association. We are a social action group, seeking to give witness to the six UUA resolutions of past years calling for an end to capital punishment:
1961, 1966, 1974, 1979, 1989, and 2005.
We are grateful for the enthusiastic support we have received from our denomination, particularly the UUA Faith in Action Office for Justice Programs, and the Fund for Unitarian Universalist Social Responsibility.

At present, our members come from 43 different states. We are reaching out to all UU congregations, and working to increase membership so that our work may continue effectively.

We welcome your comments, questions, letters to the editor, contributions for future newsletters (reviews of books or films about the death penalty, articles about your involvement in this issue, news about your state situation, etc.), suggestions. If you need to know who to contact in your state, ask us -- we have an abolitionist directory in our office. Help us to create a feeling of "family" as we join together in this important work.

There can be no true justice
without the union of compassion with accountability.
