Chicago Westside Branch Naacp

03/14/2026

We are proud to celebrate a historic moment for the Chicago Westside Branch NAACP. ABC 7 Chicago recently highlighted the naming of Remel Terry as our new President, marking the first time in nearly 20 years that our Branch will be led by a woman.
The segment also featured President Terry speaking about this new chapter in leadership.

This moment is about more than a title. It is about legacy, progress, and the continued strength of Black leadership on the Westside of Chicago. We are proud of what this represents for our Branch, our community, and the future of the work ahead.

Please join us in celebrating President Remel Terry, watch the ABC7 feature, and share it with your networks as we continue building on the mission, impact, and promise of the Chicago Westside Branch NAACP.

The NAACP Westside Branch has named Remel Terry as its new president, their first female leader in nearly 20 years.
