🌟 Yesterday, we proudly participated in Military Services Bring Your Child to Work Day, engaging participants across all 10 of our military programs, along with our Job Corps students at the Jacksonville, FL location. The day was packed with hands-on activities where kids explored construction technology, STEM/Electrical, and Plumbing. Our young innovators had a blast making sailboats, race cars, Army tanks, and solar-powered tanks and helicopters! 🚤🏎️🚁 The event aimed to share information about our programs and encourage kids to consider learning a trade if they decide college isn't their path. #MilitaryServices #BringYourChildToWorkDay #HomeBuildersInstitute #ConstructionTechnology #STEM #Plumbing #FutureBuilders #TradeSkills #JacksonvilleFL #FtCavazos #JobCorps #Inspiration #LearnATrade #HBI
