These kids coming out of this program know more than many people in the trades already. They know how to use all the tools; we cover every aspect of construction in here, so they have a general idea of everything. They really have a great skill set and are going to be very employable when they get out of here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first time MCCC construction students have assisted either Habitat or other local community organizations. Other community projects students have done in the past include building a handicapped-accessible deck for a local Make-A-Wish recipient, rebuilding the firehouse museum in Medina and building out a storage room at the Medina AmVets post to convert to a meeting room.<\/p>\n<p><em>Credit: Jack Kopanski \/ Gazette<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Feb 12, 2021<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/medina-gazette.com\/news\/251435\/career-center-students-assist-habitat-for-humanity-with-home-build\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read the entire article here.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of a joint effort with Habitat for Humanity [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":20553,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"Tribe__Tickets__Commerce__PayPal__Main","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"footnotes":"","_tec_slr_enabled":"","_tec_slr_layout":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20554","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hs"],"ticketed":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcjvs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20554","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcjvs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcjvs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcjvs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcjvs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=20554"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mcjvs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20554\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20555,"href":"https:\/\/mcjvs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20554\/revisions\/20555"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcjvs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/20553"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcjvs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=20554"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcjvs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=20554"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcjvs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=20554"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
