The New England Work & Family Association (NEWFA) was established in 1992 to help employers understand and address the complex work/life challenges facing today's workforce.

Our mission is to foster collaboration among NEWFA members to create and sustain employer workforce efforts that effectively meet both employee and business needs. Our goal is to build more productive, healthier workplaces for the benefit of employers, employees, families, and the community.

NEWFA provides a forum and resource base for organizations interested in becoming more progressive in their human resource practices. Our meetings, research, education, and information services cover a broad range of topics of interest to organizations who seek to become "an employer of choice."

Topical areas of interest include increasing employee engagement and resilience, changing organizational culture, flexible work options, diversity, and career development over the lifespan. We serve as a way for members to meet and learn from each other. Through our quarterly meetings, listserv, monthly updates and web site, NEWFA members benefit from up-to-the-minute information and research. As part of the Boston College Center for Work & Family at the Carroll School of Management, all NEWFA members benefit from the Center's in-depth, continuing research and expertise.

We hope that you will consider joining us!
