Welcome to SWEP-MA!
The Society for Women Environmental Professionals (SWEP) is a national non-profit professional association of women involved or interested in environmental law, science, engineering, business, and policy. Our chapter serves as a resource for members in Massachusetts, providing opportunities for professional development through networking, educational programming, mentoring, social events and public service.
SWEP is a unique organization composed of professionals from a variety of disciplines, providing members with greater exposure to information from and contacts in diverse environmental practice areas.
SWEP-MA is planning a full year of great networking opportunities including notable speaker dinner events, monthly meet and greet receptions, business skill development programs, and public service activities.
Mentoring Program
Mentoring relationships are difficult to classify. Mentors wear the hats of advisor, friend, teacher, role model, coach, and listener. Mentoring is a two-way relationship; both mentors and protégés benefit from their experiences.
