BROOKLYN, N.Y. (CNS) -- Faith & Family, based in North Haven, Conn., won the general excellence award for general-interest magazines for the sixth year in a row in the Catholic Press Association's annual competition. U.S. Catholic, published in Chicago, finished second for the second year in a row. Taking third place was St. Anthony Messenger, published in Cincinnati. Honorable mentions went to Ligourian, Notre Dame Magazine and True Girl. The CPA judges said True Girl deserved special mention for being a first-year magazine, adding that it does a "great job of fulfilling its goal of targeting Catholic teenage girls." The awards were announced May 25 during the Catholic Media Convention in Brooklyn.
