National Association of Women in Construction

Illuminations Lighting Design is proud to announce its membership with the prestigious trade organization National Association of Women in Construction or NAWIC.

The National Association of Women in Construction or NAWIC originally began as Women in Construction of Fort Worth, Texas. It was founded in 1953 by 16 women working in the construction industry. Knowing that women represented only a small fraction of the construction industry, the founders organized NAWIC to create a support network. Women in Construction of Fort Worth was so successful that it gained its national charter in 1955 and became the National Association of Women in Construction. NAWIC's core purpose is to enhance the success of women in the construction industry.

NAWIC’s objectives are:

• To unite for the mutual benefit of the women who are actively engaged in the various phases of the construction industry.
• To promote cooperation, fellowship and a better understanding among members of the Association.
• To promote education and contribute to the betterment of the construction industry.
• To encourage women to pursue and establish careers in the construction industry.
• To provide members an awareness of the legislative process and legislation as it relates to the construction industry.

Since its founding, National Association of Women in Construction, an international non-profit organization, has grown to a membership of 5,500 women with more than 179 chapters. In its 51 years of service to its members, NAWIC has advanced the causes of all women in construction whose careers range from business ownership to the skilled trades. With almost 900,000 women working in construction today, the industry is becoming more accepting of their non-traditional roles.

Testimonials

Doing business with your lighting design firm has been a pleasure. It is rare to find a company that functions as well as yours. First - when you came to my house, I could tell that you knew your business and how to properly solve my problem. Second - when I told Mary Ann Bryan I met you and you were going to do my work, she was very complimentary of you and your organization. Third - when I talked with "Mia" to schedule the work, she was very cooperative and scheduled the work to be done both times exactly when I wanted it done. Fourth - when "Cesar" and his helper arrived, they came at the appointed time, they were very polite and quiet, it was obvious they knew what to do and worked efficiently. I presented Cesar with a problem concerning my electrical system. After considering several ways of solving the problem, he came up with what was by far the best solution. He is able to think through a problem and come up with the proper solution. Not every person can do that. Fifth - your invoice is the best designed one I have seen.
