Massachusetts Girls in Trades helps female students in middle school and high school – as well as recent high school graduates – to learn about and start careers in high-paying, high-skilled careers in union construction trades.
Massachusetts Girls in Trades will play a role in providing female students with equal opportunity. This will allow them to take advantage of the uptick in Massachusetts construction activity which is now seen throughout the Commonwealth.
The Northeast Center for Tradeswomen’s Equity (NCTE) is dedicated to helping women find careers in the union building trades.
NCTE plays an important role in increasing the pipeline of diverse workers in unionized construction by connecting women, particularly women of color, with opportunities to make life-long, family-sustaining careers in the union building trades.
