Last week, Senator Monique Limón celebrated ten women from Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties as the 2024 Women of the Year honorees. Every year in recognition of Women’s History Month, the California Legislature uplifts women who have had a tremendous impact in their communities.
“I am proud to recognize ten incredible women in our community and celebrate their contributions with their peers, family, and colleagues. Each one of them was chosen because they play an important role in the success of their organization and in our community,” said Senator Limón. “Their leadership and contributions are commendable and deserve to be celebrated.”
The honorees have made their mark on Senate District 19 through community engagement, health care outreach, environmental stewardship, education, and more. To learn more about this year’s Women of the Year Honorees, click on the links below.
