A Message From The Greater Boston Section President

Welcome to the Greater Boston Section of the National Council of Negro Women (GBSNCNW). Founded in 1992, GBSNCNW is one of over 200 community-based nonprofit sections chartered in 32 states.

My name is Adine Latimore, and I have been elected as the president for 2024-2026. It is my honor to serve this prestigious organization in this capacity.

During my tenure, my goals for the organization are to raise awareness of GBSNCNW in New England and beyond and to increase our membership with the help of our members.

Like the national organization, we aim to increase our involvement in economic empowerment, S.T.E.A.M., education, health equity, and social justice.

Join us on this journey as we strive to make a positive impact. Our best is yet to come!

Dr. Adine Latimore-President

Its mission is to lead, advocate for, and empower women of African descent, their families, and communities. It was founded in 1935 by Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune, an influential educator and activist, and for more than fifty years, the iconic Dr. Dorothy Height was president of NCNW.
