Residents, legislators, and other community stakeholders from Worcester, Franklin, and Upper Middlesex counties and across the Commonwealth are invited to attend, and testimony is open to any member of the public including elected officials. We’re asking anyone interested in issues that impact women, children, and families to share their experiences, to learn from one another, and create change, together.

Why: The Commission holds multiple public hearings around the Commonwealth each year. The purpose of our public hearings is to give community stakeholders the opportunity to discuss issues and concerns important to women, as well as the gaps or barriers they have experienced in the provision of services available. Public Hearings are an opportunity to give testimony on issues that matter most to you, which then directly inform MCSW’s policy priorities.
