Nontraditional Employment for Women (NEW) operates as a sector-based workforce development program in the construction, utilities, energy, and facilities maintenance fields. Based in New York City, the organization prepares, trains, and places women—primarily low-income minority women from across the five boroughs—into skilled, unionized trades with starting wages and benefits that support economic independence. Since its founding in 1978, NEW has connected graduates to dozens of regional unions and hundreds of job placements across construction, energy, transportation, and related sectors, with a notable focus on pathways to higher-wage employment. In addition to direct placement, NEW maintains ongoing relationships with apprenticeship programs to diversify the trades and increase the representation of women within those pipelines. A recent development indicates NEW’s collaboration with Life Inc., reflecting its continued engagement with partner organizations to advance opportunities for women in high-demand trades.
