作为一名长期的社区领袖和活动家，胡比-琼斯多年来一直参与波士顿的许多组织，包括他创立的Higher Ground和City Year。
自1955年来到波士顿以来，他和他的妻子凯瑟琳（Katherine）帮助改善了这座城市的教育状况。 他在罗克斯伯里多服务中心（Roxbury Multi-Service Center）的工作促成了全国首个关于特殊教育和双语教育的法律。 后来，琼斯成为波士顿大学社会工作学院院长； 他是第一位担任该职位的非裔美国人。
‘ Many things have happened that I never thought would happen,’ J在es said. ‘I never thought I’d live l在g enough to see an Asian mayor in Bost在. I thought I would by this time see a black mayor in Bost在 … I’ve just seen tremendous change. Obviously we have a great deal more to do, but we’ve come a great distance.’”
