Attend a vigil

Vigils

Each time the state of Georgia puts someone to death, GFADP members mobilize to stand vigil in protest of the state's brutal and dehumanizing action, and in solidarity with the person being executed.  We hold vigils in many communities around the state, including the state capitol in Atlanta and the site of death row in Jackson, Georgia.  See the list below to find the vigil nearest you and a local contact person:
