Welcome to
Building Pathways

Building Pathways is a non-profit organization based in Boston. Founded by the Greater Boston Building Trades Unions, we are dedicated to the recruitment, retention and advancement of under-represented groups in the union building trades, including women, people of color, and other under-served communities. To learn more, explore our programs below.

PROGRAMS

Learn about a career in the trades with 200+ hours of hands-on and classroom training. Building Pathways will provide you with the knowledge and skills you need to enter and succeed in a registered union apprenticeship program.

Our “Build a Life” program is dedicated to educating women about careers in the skilled construction trades. Tradeswomen Tuesday happens at 5pm on the first Tuesday of each month.

A coalition of grassroots community groups and labor unions working to create a more equitable and accessible child care system.

A Respectful Workplace Program providing tools and support to create and maintain safe, inclusive and productive work sites for everyone.
