Since our inception in 2009, @TroutmanPepperLockeLLP has been an integral part of the Pennsylvania Innocence Project. Their generous support in many ways helps us continue our goal to unlock the truth, and free the innocent. For more than 15 years, Troutman Pepper Locke has stood beside us - a champion for our cause. Their partnership has been vital to the Project's growth, and for this year's anniversary event, they once again lead the way as Pillars of Justice with a gift of sponsorship at our highest level.
