Diane Edmundson, President of the League of Women Voters of Cook County introduced Cook County Commissioner Degnen as the speaker for the annual Food for Thought Luncheon on August 4th. Pris Mims was the moderator for the program. Ms. Degnen was a very interesting speaker, explaining the role of a Commissioner and the challenges the Cook County Board faces. Among other accomplishments, she initiated the expansion of maternity/paternity leave to 12 weeks for County employees, and worked to limit the agency staffing usage at Cook County Health facilities, saving the County money.
