Dorchester Bay Economic Development Corporation (DBEDC) and Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) Massachusetts are excited to announce a new partnership aimed at creating career pathways in the growing green jobs market for Boston residents in underinvested communities. Building on LISC’s current Bridges to Green Jobs program, DBEDC will host a workforce training cohort in Boston …

This month, we got to catch up with Bridges to Green Jobs graduate, William Gomez-Pereira, who completed the program in September 2023 and is now working as an Energy Auditor in his hometown of Chelsea, MA. But that is not where his journey began, nor where it ends.

Meet Jasmine Thai, a graduate of LISC Massachusetts’s Bridges to Green Jobs program supported by TD Bank and Massachusetts Clean Energy Center, an experience that helped her secure an entry-level weatherization job with high-income potential in a growing industry. “If I didn't go through this program, I would have never gotten that job,” said Thai.
