HBA Fall All Member Lunch presented by Regence and Vibrant Table

"Building the Future: Workforce Expansion in Residential Construction (WERC)"

Don’t miss HBA’s Fall All Member Luncheon presented by Regence and Vibrant Table!

Join Brian Boggs, Regan Schutz, and Nathan Young as they share how HBF’s WERC Initiative is transforming workforce development in residential construction. From Oregon’s first builder-led training program in modular and mass timber construction, to innovative software that streamlines volunteer opportunities and materials donations for CTE schools and nonprofits, to new partnerships with Portland State University, Portland Community College, and K–12 classrooms, WERC is building the next generation of homebuilders. With industry support, leadership training, and real hiring pathways for graduates, this initiative is creating bold solutions to the housing crisis—one program, one partnership, and one future builder

This luncheon also kicks off the 2025 HBA Fall Membership Drive! Invite prospective members to the event, and their luncheon registration is FREE! Email SEJBTWVtYmVyc2hpcFRlYW0gfCBoYmFwZHggISBvcmc= for more information.
