Join us for *YEAR 4* of Camp NAWIC Pittsburgh! A free, week-long summer camp for girls/students in the Pittsburgh area entering 8th-12th grade in fall 2026.

Campers come in curious — sometimes unsure — and leave with new confidence about trying new things (like welding and using hand tools) and meeting new people (like skilled trades apprentices and entrepreneurs).

They also leave with a clearer sense of what careers in construction can look like. Not just hardhats and two-by-fours, but planning, systems, problem-solving, and teamwork.

It’s hands-on. It’s engaging. And it creates space to try things most students never get exposure to. You don't want to miss it!

👷‍♀️✨ Women in Construction Week 2026 is here! ✨👷‍♀️

NAWIC Pittsburgh is proud to kick off a week dedicated to celebrating the women who build, lead, and transform our industry every single day. From the jobsite to the boardroom, women in construction are shaping the future.

As we celebrate WIC Week, we’re excited to officially announce:

🚨 🚨 Applications are now open for Camp NAWIC 2026! 🏗️ 🔧
Dates: June 22-26, 2026

Camp NAWIC is our hands-on summer experience designed to introduce young women/students to careers in construction. Campers explore the skilled trades, meet industry mentors, visit active jobsites, and gain real-world exposure to the incredible opportunities available in our field.

If you know a student currently in 7th-11th grade who is curious, creative, and ready to build something meaningful — we encourage you to share this opportunity.

Let’s continue building pathways, breaking barriers, and strengthening the future of construction — together.
