Since 2011, the event has touched the lives of over 3,000 middle school to high school students from the Detroit Public Schools and exposed them to future opportunities for good-paying careers in the fields of engineering and construction. The coalition has helped provide jobs in those fields to highly motivated students who have attended the expo and indicated a desire to get more hands-on experience for pay during the summer. In addition, a career preparation website is now available at www.miroad2work.org for those who want to follow a road map to careers in construction.
