What does it take to build community wealth in neighborhoods that have been historically underinvested? The Boston Opportunity System (BOS) Collaborative is a cross-sector effort led by Boston Medical Center, focused on advancing economic mobility and neighborhood revitalization in Roxbury, Dorchester, and Mattapan. Grounded in a clear theory of change, the collaborative centers three core ideas: institutions—not individuals—must change; community leadership is essential; and trusted relationships are the foundation for long-term impact. With recent support from the Barr Foundation, BOS is expanding its work in key areas, including childcare, small-business real estate ownership, and healthy homes and climate resilience—strategies designed to strengthen community assets and address the root causes of economic inequity. In this session, participants will: *Learn how cross-sector collaboratives can align institutions around shared goals for community wealth building *Understand how community leadership and trust shape more effective and sustainable outcomes *Explore how strategies like childcare, small business ownership, and healthy homes connect to economic mobility and health *Gain insight into what it takes to move from partnership to coordinated, community-driven action Join us to hear how the BOS Collaborative is putting these ideas into practice—and what others can take from their approach. This session is hosted by Rx Foundation as part of the Power is a Social Determinant of Health series.
