"The John Paul Stevens Fellowship has enabled me to provide a valuable service to my community and allowed me to have an exceptional experience in both furthering my legal education and assisting truly underserved individuals. My summer working with a staff attorney practicing family law at Legal Aid of Oklahoma has educated me about domestic violence and how incredibly difficult it can be to rebuild one’s life with little financial means or resources.
"This experience has been unforgettable, and I look forward to continue serving those truly in need of not only legal assistance but compassion and understanding." - Lisa Torneten, 2014 Stevens Fellows and graduate of the University of Oklahoma College of Law |
