Become an Ally
Become a Construction Ally in Action and contribute to generational change within the commercial construction industry.
Who can become a Construction Ally?
Corporate entities that regularly fund the building and renovation of construction projects. Generational change is not obtained through passivity, but action. Each Ally must be committed to furthering diversity and inclusion within the commercial construction industry through actionable items, transparency, and accountability. Construction Allies will financially support the free Strong Foundations Program, which provides access to practical knowledge courses for underrepresented contractors.
Expectations
- Verify your company’s vendor documents are ensuring equity for all construction contractors.
- Assist enrolled contractors in developing social capital and business development strategies.
- Provide a list of underrepresented contractors that you have hired on your projects, which will be published in our December eNewsletter and available on our website in celebration of the impact your company is making in the construction industry.
- Provide mentorship assistance to an enrolled contractor you are matched with to establish goal-oriented progress and growth.
