The One UP Youth Initiatives Collective brings communities together from across the Upper Peninsula to host regional Mind Trekkers Events. The U.P. depends on retaining young people with the interests and skills needed to support prospering communities and grow our economy. U.P. Michigan Works! is committed to ensuring youth have early exposure to career exploration that meets the current and future demands of U.P. businesses. We take a broad approach to “STEM exploration” since the skills needed for success go beyond technical intrigue in the One UP Mind Trekkers Tour. In our inaugural One UP Mind Trekkers Tour (2022-23), the events hosted over 2,000 middle school students in the U.P.
There are multiple events held across the U.P. each year. Visit our full page to learn more:
