Mission: To help people who face barriers to work obtain employment and achieve self-sufficiency through innovative job training, placement and support services. Community Work Services (CWS) was founded in 1877 as the Cooperative Society of Visitors Among the Poor of Boston to provide services to the poor of Boston and address the roots of poverty through employment, education, and housing improvements. Its founder, Annie Fields, is said to have been a transitional figure in the development of a professional social-service network. Mrs. Fields hoped to apply business principles and efficiency to benevolent activities and charity work. Today CWS provides job placement, training and support services in the Boston area. Community Work Services joined The Fedcap Group in 2013.
