👷‍♀️ Hey High School Youth and Parents! Are you ready for an exciting adventure in the world of construction? Building Strong Communities has an incredible opportunity just for you! 🌟

The Building Strong Communities program is a multi-trade apprenticeship preparatory program that will prepare you for a career in the construction industry. This program offers individuals the opportunity to receive Union-endorsed training, exposure, and a “foot in the door” to a career in the trades. Program graduates will have an opportunity to interview with participating Construction Trade Unions and Contractors.

Last year, 56 out of 62 graduates were placed in 16 different trades careers! That’s a 90% placement rate from a 14-week commitment!
