A Brief History of Women\u2019s History Month<\/h2>\n\n

Throughout the month of March, organizations and individuals around the nation celebrate Women\u2019s History Month. In 1978, only a week was dedicated to appreciating all the strides and progress that women have made in society. It wasn\u2019t until 1987 that Congress officially recognized the month of March as Women\u2019s History Month. There are countless achievements throughout history made by women which makes it hard to squeeze all of the recognition and celebration into one month!<\/p>\n\n

In 2021, to commemorate the efforts and achievements of three of Florida\u2019s most influential women<\/a>, the Junior League of Tallahassee partnered with the Florida Department of State and the Tallahassee Downtown Improvement Authority to commission a mural honoring Florida female trailblazers.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

The phenomenal Ms. Mock lived out her years in North Florida reflecting on her incredible journey that was riddled with tribulations. Her composure was astonishing.
