NUCA is partnering with other construction companies to observe Construction Suicide Prevention Week from September 9-13, focusing on the distressing suicide rates in the American construction sector. Known for its high-stress environment, long hours, and physically demanding nature, the construction industry often contributes to mental health challenges. During this week, companies and organizations will unite to offer training sessions, workshops, and open discussions on mental health and suicide prevention. The aim is to dismantle the stigma around mental health issues and encourage workers to seek support when necessary. By fostering a culture of openness and support, Construction Suicide Prevention Week strives to save lives and enhance the well-being of industry professionals. The week will commence with a national stand-down and moment of silence at 2:50 PM ET on September 9.

NUCA remains at the forefront of federal advocacy for utility contractors, while New Jersey's influence in shaping industry policies continues to grow. Recent efforts in Congress have focused on preserving critical funding for water construction projects in the state, facing significant proposed cuts which NUCA is actively working to mitigate through ongoing lobbying efforts in the House. #utilityconstrution #NUCAStrongerTogether
