Arizona Edition - Having a spouse in the U.S. military means being prepared to move quite a bit as assignments and deployments change for military personnel.  That can make finding and keeping work or a career going for military spouses difficult, since long-term planning and career advancement take a back seat to new orders for their husbands or wives.

An enterprising groups of local military spouses may have come up with a solution.  They’ve opened a co-op in downtown Yuma for enterprising and business minded military spouses to work and perhaps even kick-start their own small businesses.  KAWC Stephanie Sanchez has details…(originally aired 06/25/14).
