Thank you everyone who helped to make our meet

community attend. It is a wonderful feeling to know that so many people
support this project and the idea behind it. Our board and our facilitator

Project
History
In
2006
Tuscola
County
requested a Community Assessment Team (CAT) from MSU Extension to compile a
report on
Tuscola
County
’s economic condition. The
conclusion of the team was that Tuscola needs to reinvent its economy and most
of the ingredients for that transformation have been here for decades. It
was decided, by leaders in the county and concerned citizens, that the best
economic strategy was the one offered by the Sirolli Institute, which uses a
bottom up, grassroots philosophy that begins with what the individual wants
rather than relying on outside sources to decide what is best for the county
and its citizens. County leaders
gathered funding for the project, attracted interested people, and
Mike Green was hired in March of 2008 to be the center of the project,
the Enterprise Facilitator.
