Senator Hunter Promotes Public Libraries During February’s National Library Lover’s Month
The "YOUmedia" initiative is an innovative 21st century learning space that connects young adults with books, digital technologies and Chicago’s educational and cultural communities inspiring creativity and collaboration. Last year, "YOUmedia" teens were featured presenters at UN World Habitat Day in Washington D.C. "Too often libraries are an overlooked resource," said Senator Hunter.

As a woman serving in the Illinois Senate, I have tried to be a strong advocate of women’s health issues. There is no bigger health issue facing women today than the risk of heart disease, which is the number on killer among American women.
This year, the first week of February has been designated as National Women’s Heart Week by the Women’s Heart Foundation. Throughout the week, the Foundation will partner with local organizations to help women come together to promote awareness and educate women across the country about how they can prevent heart disease.
