LORTON, Va., Feb. 28, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Military Spouse Network (NMSN), in its effort to continue to educate, mentor and inspire military spouses, announces its inaugural Roadshow with events taking place in three states around the country. Each Roadshow event will be tailored to the local community while tackling subjects that matter most to military spouses regarding employment, small business best practices and transition from military to civilian life.

The 2017 NMSN Roadshow events will take place in San Antonio, TX on April 7-8; Tacoma, WA on April 21-22; and Ft. Walton Beach, FL, September 22-23. USAA and University of Washington Tacoma are among the sponsors partnering with NMSN on this new endeavor.

"USAA is honored to sponsor NMSN's Inaugural Roadshow for 2017. We recognize that military spouses are a key component of the military community and support events that serve and educate military spouses across the globe."
- Maggie Hahn, USAA Military Affairs Relationship Director

The 2017 Roadshow will culminate in the annual NMSN Military Spouse Career Summit presented by USAA. This year's Summit will take place in Northern Virginia in October.

Sue Hoppin, founder and president of NMSN, notes the importance of the Roadshow and Annual Summit: "Even the strongest and most self sufficient among us needs the time and space to disconnect and focus on ourselves. These events provide an opportunity to network with other military spouses building businesses and careers, experts in the field, representatives from helping organizations in their community and others. We curate these events specifically to help military spouses thrive in the military lifestyle while pursuing their own goals and ambitions. Our goal is for everyone to leave feeling energized and empowered."
