MENTOR
Helping to facilitate, support, and advocate for long term one-on-one mentoring & apprenticeships is the next phase of our building plan.
When you set out to do important work, you can't do it without someone who has gone there before you showing you the way.
Research proves that this is a necessary part of life. And in the construction world, where things can go wrong so easily without impeccable skill, and where things won't stand strong without guidance & guidelines , such apprenticeships are often mandated.
Even though there is more research than ever to indicate that without such connection, failure is inevitable, so many in the work world go without this type of teaching and support. To add to that, young people in the margins of our society today are often left to navigate their everyday lives without these special relationships at all. There is an urgent need for for mentors to help our kids grow into healthy adults.
We will do our part in seeing that every young person in this community has someone to walk beside them in their journey to becoming a skilled, thriving contributor.

Using our connections
IN the construction Industry, We plan to create a community of builders who need good workers and are willing to Play a role in shifting the workforce culture.
In addition, we are working to build connections in the education community, and with other long standing organizations who have been working to help at -risk students. These teams are familiar with what it takes to make safe and educated mentor connections between young people and stable adults who can help them succeed, and are a vital asset to our community.
