Mission Statement: Washington Innocence Project (WashIP) works to free innocent Washington prisoners and improve our criminal justice system through education and advocacy. Program Accomplishments: During 2019 resources were devoted to the formal transition from Innocence Project Northwest, a 22-year-old university-based program, to an independent nonprofit. Case work continued with pro bono partners, board members, and volunteers. Organizational structure was established to support the hiring of staff in 2020, and a fundraising dinner was held to announce the new organization and raise funds. Policy efforts resulted in the passage of a 2019 law to establish state-wide working groups on two issues of key significance in wrongful convictions - the use of incentivized witnesses and the reliability of eyewitness evidence.
