The UT Law Capital Punishment Center will host its annual symposium on April 6 & 7, 2018.

This year’s conference, "Mitigation Advocacy," will discuss the growth of mitigation practice over the past 30-40 years along several dimensions: changes in best practices; empirical assessments of what "works" in mitigation development and presentation; the extension of mitigation practices to non-capital contexts; the importance of cultural competence in mitigation investigation; and the significance of mitigation to the practice of American capital punishment. The goal of the conference is to understand the evolving role of mitigation development and presentation in criminal litigation. We also hope to build momentum for the establishment of a mitigation program within UT's Capital Punishment Center. The proposed program would bring together experts from a variety of disciplines at UT and beyond (law, social work, nursing, psychology, medicine, communications, journalism, etc.) to train students for careers as mitigation professionals and to research best mitigation practices (both within and outside of the capital context).

Please join the Capital Punishment Center faculty and a stellar group of nationally-renowned and local panelists for a retrospective examination of mitigation investigation in the modern era as well as group discussion of our vision for mitigation training and development moving forward.
