To our HACIA community—members, partners, and staff—we thank you for your continued commitment and support. It is because of you that HACIA continues to thrive as a powerful force for equity, opportunity, and excellence in the construction industry.
We’re excited to introduce From the Board Room as a new space for updates directly from the HACIA Board. Here, we’ll highlight key milestones, reflect on our progress, and share what’s ahead. While individual Board leaders may occasionally contribute, these messages reflect our collective vision and leadership.

We are proud to work in service of our members and communities. We look forward to using From the Board Room as a platform for transparency, connection, and conversation. If you have ideas for future topics or questions you’d like us to explore, we welcome your input.
Together, we’re building a stronger, more inclusive future for our industry.
