Brookline Commission for Women

On Wednesday March 11th, 2026. Brookline Commission for Women celebrated our annual Women of the Year. It was a meaningful and beautiful event for many of us to come together. Most importantly to honor and celebrate 3 women who has dedicated their efforts, time and soul to better our community. Thank you all for joining us that evening to make it a more purposeful and significant moment. For those who missed it, here is the video of that evening. 😍

Brookline Women of the Year 2026 The Town of Brookline honors three women for their service to the community.

Today we celebrate International Women's Day! To pause and reflect on all our efforts to promote equality for women; empowering each other to continue to chip away at the barriers that can still get in the way of equality and fairness. To honor those who put their hearts and souls to better our community. Thank you! 😍

To my dear community, I sincerely apologize for a mis-spelling of one of our Women of the Year 2026 Honorees. We have made the appropriate changes. Once again, we look forward to seeing many of you who will come and celebrate with us, on Wednesday March 11th, 2026 at 7pm in our Select Board Hearing Room.

Brookline Commission for Women is excited to present to you this year’s Women of the Year. Each year we look forward to this event because it is a moment to acknowledge, to honor and to celebrate the work that many women in our community put forth. The time and resources we spent to just do; to do the things we love and we believe in, to do the things that will help make someone else’s lives a tad bit more manageable and to do the things for the greater good of our community. Over time, these small acts create huge impacts. Each year, we honor some of these women. BCW cordially invites you to join us on March 11th, 2026 as we present these women with their award.

BCW's Women of the Year nomination is still opened. If you have not had a chance to submit your nomination, we hope that you will be able to carve our a few minutes to share your thoughts about a woman/transgender woman whom you believe has done a lot for her/their community in Brookline.
