Boston Workers Alliance
The Boston Workers Alliance (est. 2005) of Boston, Massachusetts, is a "community organization led by unemployed and underemployed workers fighting for employment rights."〔(BWA website ). Retrieved 2011-09-24〕 Based in Boston's low-income neighborhood of Grove Hall, Roxbury, it acts as an unemployed-workers' union, providing direct services, incubating new businesses and leading organizing campaigns led by its membership.
==CORI==
The alliance is notable for its central role in helping to pass in 2010 comprehensive state reforms to Massachusetts' criminal record system, known as the CORI. The BWA helped lead the statewide CORI reform campaign for over 5 years, asserting that unchecked criminal record discrimination in employment and housing was unfair and had negative economic and public safety consequences for the state. BWA helped raise the CORI issue into the political spotlight in 2007 after leading a major public march from Roxbury to the State House for "Jobs and CORI Reform." The BWA, along with EPOCA, Neighbor to Neighbor, and Union of Minority Neighborhoods have been credited for helping to pass the landmark legislation, which includes "Banning the Box," referring to a policy that removed the criminal record question from all initial employment forms.
