Fortitude Strengthens Lives
Fortitude offers several eight-week programs designed to teach critical life skills, along with an introduction to the construction trades. Each cohort will consist of 300 hours - 120 in “Life Mastery” and 180 in Trades Introduction. Participants will also obtain six industry certifications through their Fortitude experience: OSHA 10, Hilti Tools, Forklift, Boom lift, Scissor lift, and Flagger - enabling our graduates to go confidently into the industry and begin their careers.
Explore the Construction Trades in person!
Come join us for one of our live “Exploring Construction Careers” events and meet experienced craftspeople in the trades. This half-day experience is designed for those interested in a construction career to experience what it might be like to work on a commercial job site.
Help us build a stronger community
Fortitude could not exist without the generosity of our donors, partners, and volunteers. We are always in need of people who can offer their talents to mentor our participants, donors to sustain our work, and partners to align with our efforts through corporate support.
Join the Fortitude effort - it’s fun, meaningful work!
