Hilda Frontany is a dedicated community activist w

Hilda Frontany is a dedicated community activist who has significantly impacted Chicago’s Latino community. Over the years, Frontany has worked relentlessly to protect and advance the rights of immigrants and limited English-speaking communities, having participated in a lawsuit to bring bilingual elections to the city of Chicago. She also advocated for the appointment of Chicago’s first Latino police superintendent. In the late 60,s to early 70’s she was dedicated to addressing the housing crisis that was displacing Latinos and low-income residents from Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood. As a member of the Lakeview Citizens Council, Frontany provided a public voice for Latinos and helped support homeowners.

In recognition of her contributions, Frontany was inducted into the 2023 Senior Illinoisans Hall of Fame. And In 2018, she was honored with the Felisa Rincón De Gautier Distinguished Woman Community Activist Award for her contributions to the community.

We would like to celebrate all that she has done for the Latino community and the history she has made in her years of advocacy that has helped increase access to healthcare, housing, and voting for the Latinx community.
