U.S Forest Service: Teens Find Summer Jobs With Help From Michigan Works!

Several teens are helping the US Forest Service maintain recreation areas this summer along the Manistee and Pine rivers. The young adults got the jobs through the Northwest Michigan Works! Summer Youth Employment Program.

The Networks Northwest team did a great job to help the City of Charlevoix and Charlevoix Township collaborate in addressing housing challenges in our community. They facilitated dialogue with Planning Commissioners, community stakeholders, and municipal officials to develop a plan for cohesive zoning in areas of growth for our two governments. Further, they were able to pinpoint the challenges in each unit and propose changes that would be beneficial all around. Together, we believe we'll be better prepared for housing developments and job growth in our region. We look forward to working with them on future projects!
