Black youth have had a minimal part of any workforce due to the lack of employable skills, compared to other ethnicities. In the alternate, their incarceration rate has soared. The focus of CAL-SOC will be to offer an opportunity to gain access to those employable skills within the construction industry through proper training and guidance. CAL-SOC’s prerequisite for enrolling will be minimal. In keeping with the ease of program entrance, education, race, and socioeconomic status will not be o consideration for entering the program.
