Rebuilding Justice Award

Each year, IAALS recognizes individuals and groups who exemplify the spirit of innovation and leadership that we champion as we work toward building a legal system that is accessible, fair, reliable, and accountable. The first recipient of the Rebuilding Justice Award award was U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor. Over the years, IAALS has given the award to chief justices of state supreme courts, legislators, federal district court judges, legal educators, philanthropists, and others. See the full list of recipients here.

IAALS is proud to honor the key leaders and coordinating members of the Colorado Licensed Legal Paraprofessionals (LLP) Committee with the 2025 Rebuilding Justice Award. Their perseverance in developing and implementing this program is a testament to their commitment to providing legal help to the millions of Coloradans who cannot afford an attorney, and they serve as role models to others in Colorado and around the country. The LLP program is a groundbreaking initiative that will have a profound impact on the lives of countless people. Through this award, we recognize and champion the committee's leadership, innovation, and long-standing commitment in support of ensuring access to justice for all.
