About WIC Week
March 5-11, 2023
(wicweek.org) "WIC Week™, or Women in Construction Week™, celebrates and promotes the role of women in the construction industry. NAWIC held the first WIC Week in 1998 and it has grown and expanded each year since. Many of our local chapters hold WIC Week events, which can include making presentations to high school classes, job site tours, luncheons and virtual events. This year's theme, 'Many Paths, One Mission', celebrates the different journeys women have taken toward the same goal: strengthening and amplifying the success of women in the construction industry."
CWC is proud that almost a quarter of our workforce is female. Later this month, the CWC Women's Group will be speaking with students in Thomas Edison High School of Technology's Construction Management class about our roles both in our company and industry.
