AUSTIN- What are the effects of serious violence, including the death penalty, in Texas? Listening with empathy and without judgment to narratives of lived experience, The Texas After Violence Project seeks to understand the effects of violent crime and capital punishment and to engage communities in thinking collectively, critically, and constructively about how to respond to and prevent violence most effectively.
