In observance of Women's History Month, Cook County annually presents the Unsung Heroine Award to 18 women, one from each district of Cook Country and one county-wide recipient. The women are honored for their contributions to their communities, families and professional endeavors. This award is designed to tell the story of the powerful impact women have had throughout history on the development of our social, cultural, economic and political institutions.
