The Impact The Program Has
On The Community

The St. Paul’s Painters Pre-Apprenticeship Program offers young people a pathway to a construction trade career. Before the program, many participants did not know much about the construction trades or how a career could offer them growth, stability and an opportunity to create a better life

Today, more than 270 young men and women have gone through the program so far—with additional partners and funding we want to expand that number over the next several years.

• 95% placement for program graduates
• Graduates receive industry recognized certification
• Entry-level skills for admittance to union apprenticeship
• Continued support services
• Career path to competitive wages, benefits and retirement pension
