Shipbuilders supported an important cause that resonates with everyone at the Gulf Coast Heart Walk. Volunteers raised awareness on heart health, cheered on survivors and honored their friends and families. The walk became a powerful reminder of what our shipbuilders value most.
We know shipbuilding is tough work—and understanding the support available to you can make things smoother. Join us at the Shipbuilder Resource Showcase on October 15 to connect with teams across Ingalls, ask questions, and learn about resources that benefit you at work and at home.
The “First Impression Connections: How to Build Your Network” session taught shipbuilders how to strengthen professional relationships and build meaningful connections.

Across three community events, shipbuilders demonstrated the spirit of service, togetherness and community pride during a meaningful weekend of volunteerism.
