Free copies of Dead Man Walking
for Catholic Schools and Catholic communities in LouisianaAs part of the Louisiana Repeal Campaign, the Ministry Against the Death Penalty (MADP) is providing grants for Louisiana schools and Catholic communities to purchase copies of Sister Helen Prejean’s Dead Man Walking.
If you’re interested in either of these programs, contact MADP’s director, Elizabeth Ryan. She will help you with your request. We are flexible with these grants, so we may be able to tailor the grant to your needs.
For those interested in repealing Louisiana’s death penalty, Louisiana Repeal has a page devoted to action Catholics can take.
