Louis Stokes Paragon Award
The Louis Stokes Paragon Award
In August 2015, Legal Aid lost former board member, supporter, and friend Congressman Louis Stokes. Congressman Stokes dedicated his life to serving the people of Cleveland. His was a sharp vision of justice: all people deserve our respect and any barriers that prevent each individual from fully engaging in our society must be removed. In his honor, Legal Aid inaugurated in 2015 the Louis Stokes Paragon Award.
