Tennessee Innocence Project

Tennessee Innocence Project is a non-profit dedicated to exonerating the innocence in Tennessee. Launched in February 2019, as the first full-time innocence organization in the state, the Tennessee Innocence Project represents men and women making claims of actual innocence. The Tennessee Innocence Project has three primary areas of focus: 1) Investigating and litigating wrongful conviction cases for those in Tennessee prisons to obtain exonerations, 2) Training law students and attorneys about how to litigate these cases and how to prevent future wrongful convictions, and 3) Effectuating changes that facilitate the discovery of wrongful convictions and remedies to the wrongfully convicted. Exonerations often take years to achieve and require countless hours of hard work by attorneys, investigators and volunteers. Please consider getting involved and supporting our mission.
