PREVIEW - Welcome to Camp NAWIC: Teaching Girls The Benefits of The Trades

In a world where the electrical industry has long been dominated by men, a burning question emerges: How can we bring more women into this thriving field? Determined to shatter the barriers of gender stereotypes, National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) embark on a mission to pave the way for more women to join the industry through a week-long, hands-on training camp in San Diego known as Camp NAWIC.
For the past 15 years, Camp NAWIC (National Association of Women In Construction) has been an oasis of opportunity, offering a unique experience to high school-aged girls seeking to explore the world of construction. Camp NAWIC serves as a catalyst for empowerment, a space where confidence flourishes, and young women are introduced to the possibilities within an industry they had not traditionally been encouraged towards.
