A Legacy of Leadership
WIC Week® dates back over six decades. In 1960, Amarillo Mayor A.F. Madison proclaimed the first “Women in Construction Week” to honor the founding of NAWIC and recognize the growing contributions of women in the field. What began as a local observance has since grown into a national movement.
In 1998, NAWIC moved WIC Week to the first full week of March to align with Women’s History Month and International Women’s Day — a strategic shift that strengthened NAWIC’s leadership in championing equity and visibility for women in construction.
Today, WIC Week® includes national campaigns, regional programs, and hundreds of chapter-led events across the U.S. — from jobsite tours and panel discussions to mentorship sessions, media outreach, and community service projects.
