Built Better Webinar | Bridging Tribal and Urban Jobsites: Indigenous-Led Strategies
Wednesday, November 18, 2026 | 1:00 to 2:00 PM CT | Live on Zoom
Free for members | $35 non-members
Presented by NAWIC’s Professional Development & Education (PD&E) Committee and co-branded with the NAWIC Indigenous Industry Council (IIC), this special convening honors National Native American Heritage Month.
This session creates a dedicated space where Indigenous tradeswomen can share culturally specific resources, discuss challenges on tribal and urban jobsites, and strengthen professional connections. Experienced Indigenous journeywomen will explore workforce retention strategies, mentorship models grounded in ancestral values, and ways to bring traditional leadership principles into today’s construction industry.
Participants will hear real-world approaches, take part in Q&A, and leave with a directory of Indigenous-led support systems, practical actions for mentorship and retention, and renewed commitments to visibility and community resilience across the trades.
