Summary:
This series documents the organization and administration of the Boston Women's Action Coalition. Meeting agendas (1992-1996) and minutes (1994-1996) provide evidence of members' discussions, the motivations and preparations for the direct actions, and other social and fund-raising activities. Promotional materials reveal how the Boston Women's Action Coalition articulated its mission and positions on issues for both its members and the general public. These records include new member packets, publications, brochures, and stickers. Clippings describe the Boston Women's Action Coalition's more visible actions and show varied public perspectives and reactions to the group's methods. Documentation concerning the founding of the group is sparse.
