Dorchester’s Janine A. Dailey will be joining Boston Harbor Now as chief advancement officer next month. She most recently served as vice president of Advancement and Alumni Relations at Pine Manor College in Chestnut Hill.

Dailey has also held senior development positions at Boston University’s Sargent College of Health & Rehabilitation Sciences, Children’s Hospital Boston, Episcopal Divinity School, the Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health, and Horizons for Homeless Children.

She has also worked with K-12 METCO as director for the Sudbury Public Schools and the Lincoln-Sudbury Regional School District, facilitating and supporting enrollment of Boston students in the suburban school districts.

 Dailey will be a key strategic partner with President and CEO Katherine F. Abbott and BHN’s boards of trustees and advisors.

“Janine’s rich, diverse experience in development and deep roots and connections throughout Greater Boston make her the ideal candidate to lead our development work and support our overall mission of fulfilling Boston Harbor’s potential to benefit everyone in our city and region,” said Abbott.

Dailey earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Massachusetts-Boston and has earned three master’s degrees: in psychology from Boston College, in business administration from Simmons University; and, most recently, in divinity from the Andover Newton Seminary at Yale Divinity School. An ordained itinerant elder and pastor in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, she is a lifelong resident of Dorchester.
