$13M to Support #WomenInConstruction! ????? Breaking into #construction as a woman isn’t easy—but California is working to change that. With women making up just 11.2% of the U.S. construction workforce and only 4% of apprentices in California, more support is needed. That’s why the state just announced $13 million in ERiCA grant funding to help women and underrepresented groups enter and succeed in the trades. This funding covers: ? Childcare costs so working moms can train ?? ? Mentorship & mental health support ?? ? Anti-harassment training for safer job sites ??♀? “Building trades apprenticeships offer a significant opportunity for economic mobility,” says Adele Burnes of the California Department of Industrial Relations. It’s time to break barriers and build a stronger, more inclusive workforce. ?? ??Get the full details—including how to apply—here: https://lnkd.in/g8t3KYi4 #WICWeek #Tradeswomen #EqualityInTrades #BuildTheFuture #WomenInTrades #UnderTheHardHat
