It is devoted to the causes that she has always championed: stabilizing families and communities, reducing and preventing violence and trauma, combating poverty and addressing issues which disproportionately impact women and girls. Pressley has earned local and national attention for her efforts to provide pathways to graduation for pregnant and parenting teens, ensure Boston high school students received comprehensive sexual health education and strengthen support services for families of homicide victims.<\/p>\n<p>The Boston Globe named Pressley one of its 2011 Bostonians of the Year. BET recognized her with its 2011 Leading Woman Award and The Urban League honored Pressley as a Woman of Power. <\/p>\n<p>Pressley\u2019s political career spans more than 18 years including work as a Senior Aide for Congressman Joseph P.
