NAWIC Mississippi Gulf Coast Chapter #256

Chapter History
The MS Gulf Coast Chapter was chartered on December 2, 1978, and belongs to NAWIC’s South Central Region. (Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Mississippi) Gulfport, MS is the chapter’s “home base”, although we do have members from other cities along the MS Gulf Coast as well as members to the North and East of us up to a few hours away. A noteworthy bit of history is the first “Block Kids Contest”, was initiated by Erma Lamousin, a MS Gulf Coast Chapter member, and it was held in Biloxi.  Currently the MS Gulf Coast Chapter has about 15 members and represents:  General Construction, Road Building/Paving, Civil Work, Insurance, Construction Industry Services/Professional Organizations, Roofing, Precast Construction, and Construction Education.
