WHO WE ARE

The Boston Green New Deal Coalition (BGNDC) is a civic network of groups and individuals committed to addressing economic, racial, environmental, and climate injustice in Boston using an anti-racist approach.

This means focusing on transforming the City into an equitable climate and environmentally healthy place to live, by supporting policies and programs that center those most impacted by current injustices.

Frontline and BIPOC-led community groups lead the priorities outlined by the BGNDC.

OUR WORKING MISSION STATEMENT

We are a citywide coalition space that aims to add value and capacity to all individuals, groups, coalitions, and organizations working on equity, environmental, climate, and economic justice collectively to make tangible progress towards a shared transformation for Boston.
