Wayne's dropping in to update us on the Legislative Session, our upcoming Owner's Roundtable (that you won't want to miss!), and how you can get more involved with the Idaho AGC today.

Welcome to the first Words With Wayne of 2024! We're kicking it off by catching up with Wayne at the statehouse, where he's accompanied by our Director of Government Affairs, Sean Schupack. They're giving us an update on what the first two weeks of the legislative session looked like and which events we have coming up. He's also featuring a special project from one of our members!

Cooper Norman is happy to announce that its senior consultant, Mike Goettsche, has achieved the certification of CCIFP (Certified Construction Industry Financial Professional).

Wayne is celebrating Careers in Construction Month! He's also recapping the team's trip to Washington D.C. to accept the James E. Cashman Award from the AGC of America. And of course, he's reminding us which events we all need to signup for before they sell out!

Wayne is stopping in to discuss Construction Suicide Prevention Week and the recent project we did with PortaPros to put suicide awareness stickers in 1,500 porta potties across Idaho. He also reminds you about all of the discount programs you have access to as an AGC member, and there are probably a lot more than you think! He also talks about our upcoming Gala, and why you should buy your ticket ASAP!

Boise, ID – As part of their ongoing commitment to worker safety, construction companies, organizations, and stakeholders across the nation are joining forces to observe the Construction Suicide Prevention Week from September 4th to the 8th. This dedicated week aims to raise awareness about construction workers' mental health challenges and promote resources for suicide prevention and mental well-being.

The construction industry, known for its demanding nature and high-stress environments, has identified the need to prioritize the mental health of its workforce. Construction Suicide Prevention Week is a collaborative initiative that seeks to break down stigma, provide support, and foster a culture of empathy and care within the industry.
