Women Build Classes

Skagit Habitat for Humanity is excited to introduce a new way to get involved in our mission of building homes, community, and hope. Women Build Classes are designed to create a supportive and welcoming space for women to gain home improvement and construction skills.

Each class focuses on a different set of skills for participants to practice, like using power tools, installing flooring and tiling, home maintenance, carpentry, and much more!
