Lucy McGough Award Past Recipients
Named in honor of Professor Lucy McGough, whose decades of scholarship and advocacy transformed Louisiana’s approach to juvenile justice. This award recognizes an individual whose work advances the reforms envisioned by Act 307 and the Children’s Code—ensuring that Louisiana’s juvenile system protects, rehabilitates, and values children as distinct from adults in the justice process.
