ABOUT

Empowering Youth for Justice

Inspired by the Innocence Project's work in overturning wrongful convictions, Youth for Innocence is a 501(c)3 organization dedicated to empowering high school and college student volunteers to summarize and investigate wrongful convictions. Through interactive training, we equip our youth with essential legal skills, empowering them to evaluate cases and collaborate with professionals to help innocent prisoners regain their freedom and ensure justice prevails.

Disclaimer: we are not lawyers and therefore not able to give legal advice.

WHAT WE DO

Giving Innocence Hope

EVALUATING CASES

Connecting Lawyers and the Wrongfully Convicted

At Youth for Innocence, we summarize cases and examine new lines of evidence to determine whether a prisoner has enough evidence of innocence to overturn their conviction.

Reporter's Transcript Notes

RT Notes are heavily compacted summaries of the transcript of a trial. Requiring no special degree or advanced knowledge, they are the perfect way for beginners to get involved.

Investigating New Evidence

By exploring new leads and locating witnesses, we streamline the process for attorneys to discover the new evidence necessary for exoneration.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH

Educating Our Communities on Wrongful Convictions

Through social media and our blog, we try to target youth audiences to educate them about the prevalence of wrongful convictions, empowering them to rise up and fight for criminal justice reform.
