On Feb. 27, the Construction & Maintenance Education Foundation (CMEF), the educational affiliate of Associated Builders and Contractors of Greater Houston, partnered with local construction industry professionals for the 2019 Girls Construction Camp at CMEF’s Performance Verification Center. Since 2016, the camp has provided girls with career awareness and experience in the construction industry, with the hope that some of them may ultimately consider a career in construction.
Most of the volunteers who led the various sessions were women who work in the construction industry.
