The ICW created the concept of the Torchbearer Awards in 2004 to honor the many Hoosier women who have overcome or removed barriers to equality or to whose achievements have contributed to making our state a better place in which to live, work and raise a family. Since then, the Commission has honored more than 100 women from a variety of different backgrounds and brought to the forefront the great accomplishments of Indiana women.
