Northwest Michigan Works! 2011 Alumnus of the Year

When Cindy Erdman-Pruyne left an abusive marriage she had two young children and no job. Northwest Michigan Works! in Manistee helped her improve her career skills and find a full-time job helping special needs children at a northern Michigan school. Watch the video to find out more about the help Cindy received from Northwest Michigan Works!

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!
