Welcome to the Boston Harbor Women of Color Coalition (BHWOCC) Supporter Sign Up! We're a collaborative, solutions-driven, supportive group of people who identify as women of color who work on or for the Boston Harbor, the Boston Harbor Islands, and/or work to get our communities engaged in green and blue spaces.
The coalition is an employee driven initiative founded in May 2021 by Malene Welch, Joye Williams, Maya Smith, and Nikki Tabron, four Black women who work at Boston Children’s Museum, Save the Harbor/Save the Bay, and formerly Thompson Island Outward Bound respectively.
The founding intentions for the BHWOCC are to create a space that centers women of color and is focused on cultivating relationships, creating professional pathways of advancement, developing culturally informed programming and events, and building strategies to specifically address climate change in communities of color.
