Our Impact on Boston
Each year, we educate and empower thousands of Bostonians to make positive change in their lives and their communities. What does this look like?
- It’s 169 organizations and individuals signing up to host a total of 141 pledge boards and 128 conversations between an estimated 6,172 total participants for our annual Stand Against Racism campaign.
- It’s a LeadBoston alum putting her newly acquired skills into practice after her daughter was the subject of a hate crime at school.
- It’s our Advocacy Committee continually working to dismantle the racism, sexism, and cis-sexism ingrained in Boston’s policies and institutions.
-
It’s our InclusionBoston program partnering with over 100 organizations to change culture, policies, and practices in order to build more inclusive environments in the City of Boston and beyond.
For over 150 years, YW Boston has turned the support of those who envision a better Boston for all into creative and effective programs that make measurable impact on our city. Learn more about our impact in 2018.
