Gov. Rick Snyder addressed the Grand Rapids Young Professionals, a group dedicated to providing young professionals with an opportunity to network with each other, at MLive Media/Grand Rapids Press Hub on Aug. 22. Snyder encouraged the group to stay in Michigan rather than pursue careers elsewhere in the nation. The governor said he wanted to focus on creating new and better jobs, and he told the young professionals they are at the forefront of making a change in Michigan. He also encouraged volunteerism and the use of the website DoSomethingMichigan.com.
