Announcing Our 2023 Award-Winning Stories from Chicago Health and Caregiving

Chicago Health and Caregiving magazines have won a host of prestigious journalism awards in 2023. Read them here.

The results are in! We had a fantastic time this past week at the National Federation of Press Women’s annual awards ceremony. Chicago Health and Caregiving picked up multiple honors for writing, editing, and design after advancing from the Illinois competition. This year’s ceremony took place at the beautifully unique Graduate Hotel in Cincinnati (not a paid plug — just one of my personal favorite hotel stays). And I’m so grateful for all of our team’s talents and effort, having stood out among the more than 2,000 entries. Congratulations to all, and please enjoy reading through our winning entries.
