The Essay Contest is a companion activity to the Kennedy Library Foundation’s annual Profile in Courage Award, which honors elected officials who have demonstrated exceptional political courage. The Award was created by the Foundation in 1989 and the Essay Contest was created in 1994. The same Committee that selects the Award winner also selects the winners of the Essay Contest. Both the Award and Essay Contest winner are honored at the Profile in Courage Award Ceremony, which takes place in May at the Kennedy Library in Boston.
