THE CAMPS PROVIDED HANDS-ON INSTRUCTION IN PLUMBING, ELECTRICAL WORK, CARPENTRY, AND OTHER TRADE AND STEM-RELATED FIELDS, DELIVERED BY WOMEN PROFESSIONALS CURRENTLY WORKING IN THE INDUSTRY. IN ADDITION TO TECHNICAL SKILL-BUILDING, CAMPERS PARTICIPATED IN MENTORSHIP CIRCLES, LEADERSHIP ACTIVITIES, AND CAREER EXPLORATION SESSIONS.
