PAST - The National Association of Minority Contractors: Past and Present

What is the role of NAMC and the Coalition of Black Trade Unionists (CBTU) in leading the Building Electrification transition? How do we ensure that this actually is a Just Transition for BIPOC tradespeople in the East Bay?

Join Mark Hall (Revalue.io CEO, NAMC Northern CA Board Member) and Mario Wagner (NAMC VP for Northern CA) in a discussion about the role of NAMC and the CBTU in shaping the construction industry since their founding in the Civil Rights movement, and about specific pathways for local minority contractors to lead the electrification transition today. Federal Inflation Reduction Act funds will be available in CA in the first half of 2024. NAMC and CBTU are working to ensure that those funds translate into strong business opportunities and wage increases for BIPOC tradespeople in the Bay Area.
