The WTC is....
TRANSFORMING!
Through an innovative process of discernment using the tools of Spiritual Leadership, the board, staff and partners came to the conclusion that the organization needed to make some big changes in order to take the organization to the next level. We are very proud of our process, and look forward to deepening our spiritual leadership as we revision the organization.
The WTC will remain in its current location at the 140 Clarendon Street YWCA. Our general email (contactwtc@thewtc.org) and phone (617-585-5655) are also the same, so you will always know how to contact us!
BIG CHANGES
A Coordinating Team and Board of five longstanding WTC partner-members are leading the re-visioning process over a one-year period beginning July 1, 2007. They are: Curdina Hill, Carol Lee, Lisa Owens, Gladys Wheaton, and Claudia Castaneda. The WTC is profoundly grateful to them for volunteering their time, energy, wisdom, and spiritual force in order to see the WTC into the future.
Fully supporting this change, Donna Bivens and Meck Groot stepped down from the co-directorship at this same time, and remain beloved consultants to the ongoing process of transformation that they -- together with all of the former staff, Board, and members -- have made possible in their more than 20-year directorship of the organization.
