Labor Vision goes on location to learn about the pre-apprenticeship program at Building Futures as Director Andrew Cortés gives a tour of the Building Futures training facility and discusses how they give back to the community. Here, in partnership with One Neighborhood, Building Futures helps to improve the neighborhood in Riverside Park by constructing five net-zero emissions homes for low income residents. We also meet recent graduate, Lius Terrero, who gives insight into the skills he learned and how, now, as a union carpenter his family's situation has dramatically changed for the better.
