Anne Kok Social Justice Award

The Anne Kok Social Justice Award was established in 2008 to honor Anne’s contributions to our community, both in the prevention and elimination of domestic violence, as well as her actions to promote social justice. Anne directed HELP of Door County for four years, beginning in 1985, and continued her commitment to HELP in her later years as a Board Member.

In February 2008, HELP of Door County and our entire community suffered a tremendous loss with the unexpected death of Anne Kok. Anne, who served as HELP’s Executive Director, worked tirelessly to develop several of our programs that are still in place today. To recognize Anne’s legacy, HELP decided to honor her with the Anne Kok Social Justice Award. Recipients of the award are individuals who embody Anne’s ideals of Social Justice and Change and are champions for Domestic Violence Advocacy.
