Nevada Builders Alliance—the largest statewide professional membership based organization in the construction industry—announced the first statewide partnership with the U.S. Army Partnership for Youth Success the “PaYS” program. The PaYS program is part of a long-term U.S. Army effort to help young men and women gain education and training in an employment field while simultaneously serving their country. PaYS is an enlistment option for future soldiers and ROTC cadets to prepare for possible employment after active duty. Nevada Builders Alliance CEO Aaron West, said their hope for this partnership is to encourage Nevada's youth to pursue a career in the construction industry. Through this partnership, Nevada Builders Alliance will help young veterans who are looking toward a career in the construction industry by providing introductions and job interviews upon completion of their service.
