Our Program Champions

We truly appreciate the individuals who have reached out to support MSCCN.
U.S. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison from Texas, has stepped up to the plate for us
and we honor her as one of our own!

Senator Hutchison, MSCCN Program Champion

While on an official visit to Iraq, Senator Hutchison stopped to visit with a group of
US Army soldiers from West Texas stationed at Camp Babylon.

Leave it to Texas to step up to the plate first to help military spouses! Two years ago
Concentra, Inc., a healthcare company headquartered in Addison, Texas agreed to fully
fund a military spouse employment endeavor - second to none!

MSCCN started our mission from scratch with no money, staff or resources. We started
with only a real desire to place military spouses into meaningful careers with our program
that is custom-made to suit our military lifestyle.

Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison opened her heart and her staff to us as we developed our
mission. No other political figure supported us so fully. Senator Hutchison flew from DC
to Texas, in the midst of eight events during one day, to present my MSCCN team and
me with an award from the ESGR.

Senator Hutchison, believed in our MSCCN mission. On behalf of the MSCCN team,
we honor you as one of our own!
