Local Women Looking Forward to New Opportunities in Construction

Women in Trades Series: Orleans Celebrates Women in Construction Week.

Women in Construction (WIC) Week, which is being observed nationally from March 5-11, 2017, this year, is a fitting time for four Philadelphia women to graduate from a comprehensive carpentry training program.

For some of the women, it is an unexpected career path they are beginning. Others aspired to it in some form for many years. All of them were proud of their accomplishments so far, and are excited about the future.

Read more in the Philadelphia Sunday Sun about how grads from Orleans Technical College–Demi Price, Keisha Brown and Natasha Bass–took control of their futures at Orleans. Also see how the National Association for Women in Construction-Philly Chapter is inspiring the ladies at Orleans to shoot for the stars.
