University of Wisconsin Law Student Hannah Renfro-Sargent has been named winner of a $1,000 scholarship from the Leonard Loeb Scholarship Fund in recognition of her work in co-founding the Children's Justice Project (CJP) at the University of Wisconsin Law School. The Loeb Scholarship was created by the family of the late Leonard Loeb, and is administered by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers and Fellows.  The award honors a law student who has demonstrated outstanding activity in the field of family law.

In selecting Renfro-Sargent for the award, committee members noted that three other nominees had also done outstanding work with her in the Children's Justice Project:  Sarah Helvey, Notesong Srisopark Thompson, and Alecia Humphrey. To honor their work, the Loeb Scholarship Committee voted to donate an additional $3,000 to the Children's Justice Project.

Hannah, Notesong and Sarah will attend the AAMLF November 6, 2003 Academy Awards luncheon, where the scholarship will be presented officially.
