We know that too many men are not pursuing credentials after highschool. What a powerful day hosting organizations that serve men from across the state to discuss how we can continue to build on the work all of us are doing with increasing econmic opportunity for men. The resources allocated in Michigan to put men on the path to 21st century careers are greater than ever and there must be a collaborative effort to make sure these community based organizations understand how to engage their participants regarding these opportunities.
