| Mission | THE INNOCENCE PROJECT, INC. IS A NATIONAL NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION DEDICATED TO EXONERATING INNOCENT PEOPLE THROUGH DNA TESTING AND REFORMING THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM TO PREVENT WRONGFUL CONVINCTIONS. THE INNOCENCE PROJECT WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1992 AS A LEGAL CLINIC AT CARDOZO SCHOOL OF LAW AT YESHIVA UNIVERSITY AND INCORPORATED AS ITS OWN 501(C)3 ORGANIZATION IN 2004. THE INNOCENCE PROJECT MAINTAINS A STRONG PARTNERSHIP WITH CARDOZO THROUGH ITS CLINIC, WHICH TRAINS LAW STUDENTS IN INNOCENCE-RELATED MATTERS. TO DATE, 318 PEOPLE IN THE UNITED STATES HAVE BEEN EXONERATED BY DNA TESTING, INCLUDING 18 WHO SERVED TIME ON DEATH ROW. THE INNOCENCE PROJECT WORKED ON MORE THAN 170 OF THOSE CASES. THE EXONEREES REFLECT THE NATION'S ETHNIC AND SOCIOECONOMIC DIVERSITY, BUT A DISPROPORTIONATE NUMBER ARE PEOPLE OF COLOR. THE 318 EXONEREES SPENT A COMBINED TOTAL OF 4,268 YEARS IN PRISON FOR CRIMES THEY DID NOT COMMIT. | MissionDesc |

| Desc | LEGAL SERVICES (NOTE INCLUDES LEGAL, INTAKE AND SOCIAL WORK): THE INNOCENCE PROJECT USES DNA TESTING TO EXONERATE INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE BEEN WRONGFULLY CONVICTED OF CRIMES. A TEAM OF INTAKE SPECIALISTS REVIEW THE ROUGHLY 2,500 REQUESTS FOR ASSISTANCE WE RECEIVE EACH YEAR FROM INDIVIDUALS CLAIMING INNOCENCE AND DETERMINE WHETHER DNA TESTING MIGHT BE ABLE TO PROVE INNOCENCE. ONCE WE DECIDE TO TAKE ON A CASE, OUR ATTORNEYS, AIDED BY CLINIC STUDENTS FROM CARDOZO LAW SCHOOL, SEARCH FOR REMAINING BIOLOGICAL EVIDENCE AND THEN SEEK THE RIGHT TO CONDUCT TESTING IN THE COURTS. WHEN THE RESULTS PROVE OUR CLIENTS INNOCENT, WE SEEK THEIR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AND HELP THEM TRANSITION BACK INTO SOCIETY. IN FISCAL YEAR 2014 WE SECURED TESTING FOR ALMOST 40 CLIENTS AND THREE INDIVIDUALS WERE FULLY EXONERATED. IN EACH INSTANCE, OUR TEAM OF SOCIAL WORKERS WORKED TO REUNITE THE CLIENT WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND PROVIDED AROUND THE CLOCK ASSISTANCE TO HELP SECURE HOUSING,ANY NECESSARY MEDICAL OR PSYCHOLOGICAL TREATMENT AND SUPPORT IN FINDING EMPLOYMENT. THE INNOCENCE PROJECT REPRESENTED 280 CLIENTS DURING THE YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2014. | Desc |

LEARNING FROM THE EXPERIENCES OF THOSE WHO WERE EXONERATED BY DNA TESTING, WE WORK WITH STATE LAW ENFORCEMENT AND POLICYMAKERS TO INTRODUCE PRACTICES THAT PREVENT WRONGFUL CONVICTIONS, INCLUDING SCIENTIFICALLY SUPPORTED EYEWITNESS IDENTIFICATION PROCEDURES AND THE RECORDING OF INTERROGATIONS. WE ALSO ADVOCATE FOR LAWS GUARANTEEING ACCESS TO DNA TESTING THAT COULD HELP PROVE INNOCENCE, FOR FINANCIAL COMPENSATION FOR THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN WRONGFULLY CONVICTED, AND FOR ENHANCED ACCOUNTABILITY OF PROSECUTORS. WE WORK WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO SUPPORT IMPROVEMENTS IN THE RESEARCH AND VALIDATION OF THE FORENSIC SCIENCES.IN THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2014, THE INNOCENCE PROJECT HAD NINE LEGISLATIVE VICTORIES. | Desc |
