Description
The Boston Workforce Development Coalition was convened in 1996 to provide a coherent voice for the interests of diverse, low income, disadvantaged populations about workforce development issues, and to provide a forum for initiatives by Community Based Organizations in policy development, legislative advocacy, professional development, and program development.
The Coalition has begun working with the Center for Social Policy at U. Mass. Boston to develop a research report and study, for use in advocacy, documenting the outcomes, gains and successes of workforce development CBO's in Boston.
