Constructing Our Future

In 2015, Massaro Construction Group collaborated with the Hill House Association, Richard Garland (RSG, Inc) and CM Solutions on an initiative to provide opportunities for Hill District residents to become involved in the trades and work on the construction projects underway in their community.

This program is called “Constructing Our Future”. Its goal is to increase the number of minority community members who can become eligible to work on construction projects in the Hill District. We have carefully looked at the training needs to increase inclusion of minorities in our local unions. To this end, we have been partnering with the carpenters and laborer unions to work with us to ensure the hiring of minority residents meet their testing requirements.

Results from the first program include:

110 interested parties

30 individuals were selected to participate in training to prepare for trade union testing
