Preferred term

Sentencing Project, The  

Definition

  • The Sentencing Project is a nonprofit organization based in Washington, D.C. It is funded by money obtained through foundations, private gifts, the sale of publications, and technical assistance grants. The Sentencing Project was founded in 1986 to provide sentencing advocacy training to defense attorneys and to draw attention to, and ultimately reduce, what was perceived to be an overreliance upon incarceration as a criminal sanction.
