      <title>2026 Vocational Grant Award Presentation (Tuesday, May 05, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;h1 align="center" style="margin-top: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.elpasocountycontractors.com/resources/Pictures/grant%20graphic.png" alt="" title="" border="0" width="283.5" height="232"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#333333" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Every year, The El Paso County Contractors Association provides funding to local vocational programs that support the promotion of the construction industry to our youth.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;Please join us in the presentation of the Annual Vocational Program Grant Awards, made possible with your membership and support.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Lato" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Also joining us will be&amp;nbsp;Chelsea Husum!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.elpasocountycontractors.com/resources/Pictures/Chelsea%20Husum.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="-apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, Segoe UI, Roboto, Helvetica Neue, Fira Sans, Ubuntu, Oxygen, Oxygen Sans, Cantarell, Droid Sans, Apple Color Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Symbol, Lucida Grande, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"&gt;CEO of an award-winning construction company, unapologetic author, and keynote speaker on The Vulnerability Advantage: How Human-Centered Leaders Build High-Trust Teams.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="-apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, Segoe UI, Roboto, Helvetica Neue, Fira Sans, Ubuntu, Oxygen, Oxygen Sans, Cantarell, Droid Sans, Apple Color Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Symbol, Lucida Grande, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"&gt;I built a successful construction business in a male-dominated industry—with zero formal business training, no investors and no roadmap. What I discovered along the way is that leadership isn’t about having the right credentials—it’s about having the courage to be real.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="-apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, Segoe UI, Roboto, Helvetica Neue, Fira Sans, Ubuntu, Oxygen, Oxygen Sans, Cantarell, Droid Sans, Apple Color Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Symbol, Lucida Grande, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"&gt;Through my B.R.A.V.E. Leadership Framework, I help organizations create cultures where people feel safe to speak up, innovate, and lead boldly. Because when people feel seen and valued, they don’t just comply—they contribute, collaborate, and create their best work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="-apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, Segoe UI, Roboto, Helvetica Neue, Fira Sans, Ubuntu, Oxygen, Oxygen Sans, Cantarell, Droid Sans, Apple Color Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Symbol, Lucida Grande, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"&gt;My mission is simple: to help leaders ditch perfection, lead with vulnerability and humanity, and build the kind of cultures people don’t want to leave.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="-apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, Segoe UI, Roboto, Helvetica Neue, Fira Sans, Ubuntu, Oxygen, Oxygen Sans, Cantarell, Droid Sans, Apple Color Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Symbol, Lucida Grande, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"&gt;When I’m not on stage or leading my team at American GPR &amp;amp; Coring, I’m behind the mic on my podcast Lip Service &amp;amp; Lashes—or still laughing about the day my book Real Vibes Only hit #2 on Amazon’s Women in Business chart (right under Rachel Hollis).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="-apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, Segoe UI, Roboto, Helvetica Neue, Fira Sans, Ubuntu, Oxygen, Oxygen Sans, Cantarell, Droid Sans, Apple Color Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Symbol, Lucida Grande, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"&gt;Because here’s what I know for sure: you don’t have to be perfect to be powerful—you just have to be brave enough to be real.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="-apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, Segoe UI, Roboto, Helvetica Neue, Fira Sans, Ubuntu, Oxygen, Oxygen Sans, Cantarell, Droid Sans, Apple Color Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Emoji, Segoe UI Symbol, Lucida Grande, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"&gt;Featured in: Business Insider • NBC • CBS • Fox • Yahoo Finance • The Boston Herald • The Sun • The Chronicle • ABC • Denver Business Journal • Women’s Journal • U.S. Business • and more.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font face="Lato" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dinner is included with the event, and there will be a cash bar for responsible attendees over 21 years of age.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font face="Lato" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;You will not want to miss this!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
