HAppy Birthday to us

Happy Birthday to Us! Eight years ago Civic Nebraska was born straight out of Adam’s dorm room in Harper Hall.

As an eight year old, we’ve traded in our training wheels and pokémon cards for meaningful service learning projects, capital experiences, neighborhood revitalization, election protection, statewide civic health and voting rights. Our constantly expanding programs have increased our depth and breadth of civic reform over the entire state.

We believe that by engaging and connecting Nebraskans and improving political participation in general, that we will enrich the civic culture of the state, revitalize an interest in community and increasingly retain a talented and motivated population. We are excited to see where our future will take us as we continue to constantly grow and widen our area of impact around the state of Nebraska!

Fortunately, we have moved out of Adam’s dorm room and now have offices in Lincoln and Omaha, and programs throughout the state that our 30 full and part time staff work hard every day to make a reality.

Take a look at our timeline below to see our growth over the years!
