Nebraskans continue to lead the nation in several key areas of civic life. We regularly spend time with family, friends, and neighbors, volunteer at high rates, work together on community projects, and turn out to vote in local elections. These are all strong signs of a connected and engaged population. At the same time, there’s room to grow.

Join in the dialogue and find out how discourse and participation in civic life have changed since the inaugural Civic Health Index was published in 2015 at June’s Lunchbox Lecture, “Nebraska’s Civic Health Index: Past & Present,” presented by Allen Chlopek, Civic Nebraska’s Rural Civic Health Program Manager, at 12 pm on June 16 at the Nebraska History Museum.

Special thanks to the Nebraska State Historical Society Foundation for supporting this event series and the recording to broadcast on LNKTV.
