NEW for 2008: Trailing Spouse NetworkToday, many American couples simultaneously pursue their careers and share in their family’s financial responsibilities. This multiplies the challenge of relocating a family to a new community. A consortium of businesses, educational institutions, and agencies in the Upper Peninsula has created a “Trailing Spouse Network” to provide critical connectivity for a successful relocation to our region. To address employment opportunities for spouses, the network provides speedy access to hiring decision makers throughout counties and commuting pattern areas via an e-mail protocol. The Trailing Spouse Network is closely affiliated with active groups such as The Superiorland Chapter of Human Resource Professionals, The Upper Peninsula Human Resources Association, the Upper Peninsula Chapter of the American Society for Training and Development, and all of the Regional Skills Alliances in the U.P.
