Women’s History Month Staff Spotlight: Linda Roberts - United South End Settlements

Linda Roberts, Receptionist at USES for more than 20 years

Hometown and a little bit about yourself:
I was born in Boston, MA 70 years ago. I have always lived in the South End. My grandparents raised me in a brownstone on West Rutland Square where the basketball court is now. I've been with USES for 21 years, raising my youngest son here.

How does Women’s History Month connect to your work at USES?
Women's History Month and USES's connection is Harriet Tubman. There is no better person to honor!

Hobbies/favorite song/movie/book/interesting fact:
I love to cook - and I can!
