As a signatory to English Works, our organization agrees to be listed on English Works materials and will have a seat on the Campaign Committee.

We enter into this voluntary agreement with English Works in a spirit of partnership and collaboration, and with a vision of a Commonwealth that provides all residents with a pathway to economic self-sufficiency; ensures a stable, skilled workforce for Massachusetts businesses today and in the future; and integrates immigrants into the fabric of our economy, communities and shared civic life.

Public Policy Advocacy

The English Works Campaign advocates for a Commonwealth education and workforce development system that incentivizes public-private collaboration. The Campaign calls for resources and tools that are better attuned toward the economic success of immigrants and businesses in Massachusetts.

The Commonwealth’s education & workforce development mechanisms should incentivize public-private collaboration.

Attune our resources and tools toward the economic success of immigrants and the businesses that employ them.
