Reality Check: Understanding the Challenges Facing Hispanic Construction Professionals

  • Summary

  • We are thrilled to share our conversation with George Carrillo. George was the former Executive Director of LatinoBuilt. He is now the Chief Executive Officer of the National Hispanic Construction Alliance. He is a staunch advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) with deep expertise in labor relations and union contracts. He works to challenge inequitable policies and actively dismantle institutional norms through strong alliances with community-based organizations and state legislature to advocate for social justice and equitable representation.

    We had a broad and reality-based conversation. George brought the "boom" with an empathetic, insightful, and comprehensive assessment of the challenges facing Hispanic professionals in the construction industry.

    We appreciate George laying out the fundamental challenges facing Hispanic construction professionals and sharing solution-based strategies to uplift and improve their work experience and their lives.
