Construction work is social work - with Nora Spencer
Update: 2023-10-31
Description
If job sites can be hostile environments for women and nonbinary people, how do we get them into construction in the first place, so they can change those workplaces? Nora Spencer founded Hope Renovations. They run a programme to bring women and nonbinary folks in the trades, which includes training on dealing with job sites and then they employ them in internships. They’re also a nonprofit providing renovations to seniors so they can age in place. Nora joins the show to tell us why her trainees are proving to be the perfect people to do this kind of work, straddling construction and social work.
