Former President, National Council of Catholic Women

"The National Council of Catholic Women passed a resolution in 2011 upholding Church teaching that every human life has dignity. A death sentence denies this sacredness of all life and promotes a “culture of violence.” NCCW is committed to educating members using the information promulgated by the U.S. Bishops and Catholic Mobilizing Network, working to end the use of the death penalty and supporting programs that assist victims and their families."
