About WINC:
More women are getting into nontraditional jobs like union construction. The union construction industry provides good-paying jobs for women without a degree; women in union construction jobs often earn more than women who have earned a four-year degree and graduate without debt. Regardless of trade, women are building great careers that provide family-sustaining wages, health care, a secure retirement, and more.

The program provides job opportunities for women through safety training, education, mentorship, and job application assistance. WINC TRP is in partnership with the Finishing Trades Institute of the Mid-Atlantic Region, the training provider of the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades.
