Success as a Construction Fellow (CF) means bringing energy, professionalism, and pride in craftsmanship to residential home construction projects while fostering meaningful relationships with Habitat’s Partner Families and Volunteers.
CFs work closely with each other, as well as Volunteers, Crew Leads, Project Leads, and Project Managers, to contribute directly to affordable housing projects that strengthen our local community. Through this collaborative work, CFs gain training and hands-on experience in key residential construction areas, including framing, siding, drywall hanging, painting, trim carpentry, and flooring.
Beyond the build site, CFs will have opportunities throughout the year to connect with Habitat staff and stakeholders across the affiliate. These touchpoints offer insight into the many facets of affordable housing, including volunteer coordination, family support, fundraising, community engagement, and project management, giving Fellows a deeper understanding of how all parts of Habitat’s mission work together to make safe, decent, affordable housing possible.
