Unlock Your Future to a High Skilled Career
With the Mid-South's construction industry booming, we’re missing a vital chance to build pathways to middle-class jobs and reduce economic inequality.
Our Goals
- Provide pathways for people in the Mid-South to enter rewarding, high skilled, and family-sustaining careers, while creating a pipeline of new talent to meet the construction industry’s labor demands
- Significantly increase the participation of underrepresented populations (including women, people of color, veterans, individuals with disabilities) in apprenticeship programs and construction crafts in the Mid-South
- Advocate for the critical role that apprenticeships programs can play in developing a skilled workforce and addressing inequality
Our Vision
Mid-South Construction Careers convenes trade unions, business sponsors, and community groups to provide apprentice readiness programming and wraparound services including mentorship, career counseling, and case management. By connecting working people to middle-class job training and opportunity, we aim to strengthen families, strengthen neighborhoods, and create a more equitable city for all.
