The Boston Women's Workforce Council’s mission is to make Boston the best place in the country for working women by removing the visible and invisible barriers to women’s advancement.
We work with businesses in the Greater Boston area to:
eliminate the gender-based wage gap
remove the visible and invisible barriers to women’s advancement, and
ensure that 100% of the talent pool is used to make Boston the best area in the country for working women.
