2021 Louise Furst STOPDV Award Recipient
The Louise Furst STOPDV Award is named after Louise Furst, a longtime member of the community and supporter of STOPDV. Louise is one of the founding members of the Central Arkansas Women's Shelter (now known as the RISE House), and has a passion for helping and supporting survivors of domestic violence. This award is given to a person who embodies all that Louise does and will go the extra mile to ensure that all survivors of domestic violence can regain their power and their voice.
2021 Recipient
STOPDV is honored to present our 2021 Louise Furst Award to the 20th Judicial District Prosecuting Attorney, Carol Crews. In January of 2019, Carol Crews was sworn in as the first woman to hold the position of elected prosecuting attorney for Faulkner County and has been a tremendous help to our organization since we began the very same year. Combined with a passion to assist survivors of domestic violence of all ages and her experience in criminal law, she has been able to be of great help to those in need of services and spread the word about our mission.

The Honorable Judge David Reynolds has been awarded the 2020 Louise First Award. Judge Reynolds served the Central Arkansas community for 31 years before his retirement in January 2021. Over the past years, Judge Reynolds worked in conjunction with STOPDV to raise awareness about domestic violence, and keep victims of domestic violence safe in Faulkner County. His commitment to justice and passion for serving the community make Judge Reynolds the perfect recipient of this award.
