Hard Hats. Strong Women. Building the Future.

Mission

We prepare, train, and place women in careers in the skilled construction, utility, and maintenance trades, helping them achieve economic independence and a secure future for themselves and their families. We provide a pipeline of qualified workers to industries that build, move, power, green, and maintain New York.

Vision

To be the workforce development standard for non-traditional careers by removing barriers that hinder women from advancing and reaching their full potential.

Programs

Through its core pre-apprenticeship training program, job placements, and wrap-around services, NEW prepares women for skilled blue-collar careers that provide good jobs, good pay, and good benefits.
