︎ ︎   Happy #WomensHistoryMonth! We wouldn't be the organization we are today without Judge Mary Bartelme, a pioneer in the juvenile justice system and the first woman to be elected judge in a court of high jurisdiction in Illinois. Mary opened her home to girls in need at the turn of the century, later establishing Mary Clubs for girls who were not able to return to their parents, supported by volunteer services, as an alternative to state institutions. Mary became known throughout Illinois as a tireless advocate for children; her legacy lives on through the countless lives she helped better and through the work we continue to do more than a century later.
Learn more about Judge Mary Bartelme and our history at: www.lawrencehall.org/about-us/our-history/
