The Chicago City Council adopted an ordinance designating the segment of 6000-6059 South Damen Avenue as 'Mother Vergia Jones Avenue' in honor of Mother Vergia Jones’s century of service. The measure instructs the Chicago Department of Transportation to install appropriate signage reflecting the honorary street name. Mother Jones was recognized for her 50+ years of community service as a nurse's aide, missionary, and volunteer distributing food at Evening Star Missionary Baptist Church. The legislation passed unanimously and takes effect immediately upon publication. The honorary designation does not alter the street’s legal name for addressing or jurisdictional purposes. It acknowledges Mother Jones’s contributions to health, faith, and community outreach. The new signage will be mounted below existing street signs along the specified block. This designation affirms the City’s commitment to honoring local leaders.
