About City of Roxbury
We aim to empower small business owners to change the world.
First, City of Roxbury advocates for local and citywide community members to collaborate on dismantling stereotypes that hinder social progress and economic growth.

Our work recognizes underutilized community assets and fosters an environment fertile for cultural economic potential.
Second, Visit Roxbury diversifies the narrative of what it means to be from Boston and who lives here. We are the combined experiences of everyone who has contributed to making Roxbury a diverse and rich place to live, including Native Americans, Puritans, Cape Verdeans, Irish, Jewish, African American, Dominican, Puerto Rican, Haitian, Somali, and other populations. Just as the mainstream narrative of Roxbury.
