Young Professionals

Connect. Serve. Grow.

The Traverse City Young Professionals was created by Traverse Connect to empower and activate young professionals in the Grand Traverse region by providing a dynamic environment for networking and professional development. The program seeks to address the three main priorities young professionals have identified as most important to them when choosing a place to live and work:

  • Connect: Social and Recreational Opportunities
  • Serve: Connection and Engagement with the Community
  • Grow: Personal and Professional Development

    • Our community is an attractive place for young professionals to live, work, play and raise a family, thanks to our strong entrepreneurial spirit, Traverse Connect, and TCYP.

    TCYP events are free to attend. To maintain an active member status with TCYP, you must attend four events within a 12-month period.
