A wonderful success for one of Michigan’s newest residents! 

 

Vitalii and his family came to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula from Ukraine, determined to build a better life. With support from his host family in Crystal Falls and Upper Peninsula Michigan Works!, Vitalii overcame language and transportation barriers, earned his Michigan driver’s license and U.S. CDL from Midwest Truck Driving School – CDL Training, got the gear he needed, and is now working full-time with AM Express Inc. This self-sustaining job has been a dream for him and his family of four since arriving in the U.S.—and now, after about a year and a half of hard work, it’s a reality.
