We are pleased to report that the Chicago Chapter has been selected for a Presidential Excellence Award for the second year in a row (Last year we were honored to be recognized as Chapter of the Year). Presidential Excellence Awards are given to chapters which excel in all areas and go above and beyond the requirements set by the National organization. The Award will be presented on September 12, 2015 at the Annual Convention, which will be held this year in Salt Lake City, UT.

Special thanks go to Board Members Christopher Carmichael and Mary Curry, who took the time to put together a wonderful, detailed nomination, and to all of our members, Chief Judge Ruben Castillo and the Judges of the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, who continue to make our Chapter a success. We will post pictures once the award is received, so please check back soon for more news.
