Construction Leadership

How do I join Habitat's Construction Leadership?

Who are the people who become volunteer construction leadership at HFHMC?
Generally, people who are part of the construction leadership have worked as volunteers on our building sites and have become familiar with the processes we use to build homes. The people who work in this role are there to assure that the volunteers understand what to do, how to do it safely and efficiently and to what standards it needs to be done. Construction Leadership demonstrate how the tools are to be used and how the materials are to be installed. Most of the construction leadership team does not start out with much construction experience. There are occasionally some construction professionals who join but most people come with no prior construction background.

How do people without any actual construction experience learn how to lead?
We would recommend that anyone who is interested in joining our Construction Leadership Program first spend some time working as a volunteer on the building sites watching others in Leadership roles interact with their crews. Next, attend monthly skill trainings sessions led by our Construction Staff. These skill specific trainings are held both on and off site.
