**This position will be: Hybrid | NO COVID Vaccination required**   The Cape Verdean Association has worked to empower the Cape Verdean Community since 2000. Founded as the Cape Verdean Community Task Force, the organization has a long history of promoting residents' and community needs. However, we have always understood that true change cannot occur unless the individual members who compose the community possess the skills to affect that change themselves. As a result, we have run parents’ and women’s support groups, as well as youth programs and training to promote the skill development needed to affect change. The Cape Verdean community has historically been without a public voice that reflects the size and opinions of the population. As a result, the community has been victimized by violence and social inequities on an uninterrupted basis. The Bowdoin-Geneva Corridor, where many Cape Verdean families live, has long been identified by police as one of the top 5 hot spots for youth violence in Boston. Further, research into racial disparities in Boston Public Schools found that Cape Verdeans’ racial sub-group was suspended at higher rates, failed MCAS at higher rates, enrolled in exam schools at lower rates, and completed the MassCore curriculum at lower rates than the remainder of the racially black student population. Through promoting leadership and a vision for effecting social change, we feel that youth will become empowered to break the cycle of violence for their friends, their families, and themselves.

**This position will be: In-Person | COVID Vaccination required**   1631−1678 The Boston Fire Department traces its roots back to 1631, a year after the city was founded, when the first fire ordinance was adopted. In what then was the Massachusetts Bay Colony of the Kingdom of England, the city banned thatched roofs and wooden chimneys. However, it wasn't until 1653 that the first hand engine was appropriated to provide pressure for water lines. 1678−1837 In 1678, the city founded a paid fire department, and hired Thomas Atkins to be the first fire chief.[4] On February 1, 1711, the town appointed a group of Fire Wards, each responsible for the operation and maintenance of equipment assigned to a region of the city.[6] The grandfather and great grandfather of Herman Melville, Thomas Melvill, served as a town fire ward from 1779 to 1825, and Allen Melvill, served as an early firefighter 1733 to 1761. It was not until 1799 that the first leather fire hose was used, after being imported from England. 1837−1910 Firemen's Memorial (Boston) by John A. Wilson The department underwent its first reorganization in 1837 when the hand engine department reorganized, reducing the number of active engines to fourteen. By December 31, 1858, the department had 14 hand engines, 3 hook and ladder carriages, and 6 hydrant (hose) carriages. On November 1, 1859, Engine Co. 8 began service as the first steam engine in the department. The reorganization of 1859-60 replaced the department's 14 hand engines with 11 new steam engines, forming the departmental hierarchy still used today. The department was the first in the world to utilize the telegraph to alert fire fighters of an emergency, installing the system in 1851. The first fire alarm was transmitted via the Fire Alarm Telegraph system on April 29, 1852. The famous Boston fire of 1872 led to the appointment of a board of fire commissioners. The Boston Fire Department also provided assistance in the Great Chelsea Fire of 1908 and the Great Salem Fire of 1914. The department purchased its first steam fireboat in 1873, and installed fire poles in the stations in 1881.
