After their son was killed, Judy and Dennis Shepard set out to ensure people recognize the role that hate plays in society and to ask people to do all they can to erase that hate. They founded the Matthew Shepard Foundation on that principle, and the Foundation continues to create open dialogues with a diverse range of people in order to erase hate.
