Economic Empowerment
The projects we build represent pathways to economic growth through contracting and job opportunities.
We develop the next generation of our industry's workforce through recruitment, pre-apprenticeship programs, mentoring, and on-the-job training.
Our small business inclusion efforts include:
- Strategic Partnership Program, which helps grow capability and capacity of small, diverse firms.
- SDBE15, Clark's commitment to achieving at least 15 percent small or disadvantaged business participation on all projects.
- Small and Diverse Business Expo (SDBX), which connects firms with upcoming opportunities to build with Clark, as well as networking from local certifying agencies and professional services experts.
Sustainability
Building healthy and resilient communities creates a more prosperous future. We develop innovative, environmentally conscious, and practical solutions that support our company’s and clients’ goals.
- Industry Leadership and Education: Through partnerships with USGBC, the Institute for Market Transformation, FitWel, and more, we promote best practices in green construction.
- Sustainable Building Practices: We leverage our experience to manage and reduce environmental impacts on jobsites, including controlling runoff, minimizing operational carbon, and recycling construction waste and debris.
- Advisory Services: We help our clients navigate the complexities of bringing high-performing buildings to fruition.
Community Engagement
We believe in building community beyond the jobsite. At Clark, we cultivate deep and lasting relationships with the communities where we live and build.
Giving Back: From serving meals to renovating homes to cleaning up parks, our employees are passionate about building better communities through acts of service.
Being a Respectful Neighbor: We promote trust and transparency by actively engaging and communicating with residents, businesses, and community groups to understand their needs and concerns.
