We believe everyone deserves a pathway to success. Thanks to $48.7M in funding announced by U.S. Senators Ben Cardin, Chris Van Hollen, and other Maryland leaders, workforce development is reaching underserved populations across the state and nation. Programs like the Women in Apprenticeship and Nontraditional Occupations (WANTO) grants and initiatives by the Maryland Center for Construction Education and Innovation (MCCEI) are making transformative changes, expanding access for women in fields like construction, advanced manufacturing, energy, and technology. This is more than just training—it's building a diverse, inclusive workforce that reflects our communities.
