Hilco Redevelopment Sponsors HACIA’s Pre-Apprenticeship Program

Hilco Redevelopment Partners (HRP), the real estate development unit of Hilco Global that remediates and redevelops obsolete industrial properties, announced the sponsorship of the Hispanic American Construction Industry Association’s Pre-Apprenticeship Program for resident of the West Side’s Little Village neighborhood.

The program is being facilitated by HACIA’s construction training arm, HACIA University, cooperatively in a partnership with St. Augustine College, and is designed to prepare individuals for entrance into apprenticeship programs in the construction trades as well as other employment opportunities in the construction industry.

Roberto Perez, CEO of HRP, said, “We are thrilled to sponsor this program through HACIA to those living in the Little Village community, so they have an opportunity to gain skills needed to have a successful career in the trades. This pre-apprenticeship program continues to reinforce our commitment and dedication to improving the lives of those living in Little Village.”
