About...
The present community college system in Nebraska started in 1971 when the Nebraska Legislature created eight technical community college areas across the state. One of these new areas was called the Eastern Nebraska Technical Community College Area, which encompassed Dodge, Douglas, Sarpy and Washington counties. An area vocational technical school operated by the Omaha Board of Education already served part of this area.
Metropolitan Community College was created in 1974 when the Legislature consolidated the original eight technical community college areas into six. That year, the programs, personnel, assets and liabilities of the former Omaha Nebraska Technical Community College Area merged with the Eastern Nebraska Technical Community College Area under a new name stipulated by amended legislative statutes: the Metropolitan Technical Community College Area. In 1992, the Legislature voted to change the name to Metropolitan Community College Area.
MCC is currently one of the fastest growing postsecondary institutions in Nebraska. Three new buildings, the Construction Education Center, Center for Advanced and Emerging Technologies and the Career and Academic Skills Center, are now open on the Fort Omaha Campus. The new MCC North Express center will open soon at the Highlander Accelerator project near 30th and Parker streets and offer a mix of continuing education, workforce training and outreach services. Planning has started on the Industrial Training Center renovation and for a new facility for the Automotive Technology program.
The addition and enhancement of instructional facilities are geared specifically to prepare students for success in college and the workforce in the four-county area for years to come.

Laser Hair Removal For Transgender Clients
Reveal your true self by permanently removing unwanted body hair with laser hair removal.
- Avoid embarrassing hair growth — treatments require the area to be cleanly shaven.
- Nearly a pain free process. Our lasers are much less painful than electrolysis or waxing.
- All treatments are performed by female registered nurses under the supervision of a medical doctor.
Why Include Laser Hair Removal in Your Transition:
Removing unwanted hair is an important part of realizing your true gender identity. In the past, that meant an endless cycle of waxing & shaving and issues like embarrassing stubble, razor burn, bumps, and ingrown hairs. With laser hair removal, you can avoid these painful side effects.
Instead of irritating your skin to temporarily remove hair, laser hair removal will permanently remove the hair without damaging your skin. This is because our laser eliminates the root of the hair by targeting the melanin in the follicle so that it can never grow back.
Additionally, you DO NOT have to let the hair grow out in order for laser hair removal to be successful. In fact, it’s a requirement that areas being treated are closely shaven.

Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)3, non-profit, NO KILL organization launched in January 2015 by a small group of devoted animal lovers, in the Council Bluffs/Omaha area, with many years of rescue experience wanting to make a difference in the lives of dogs. Our rescue works with dogs of any breed, physical condition or age. It is all volunteer based, and all of our rescue dogs are living in the homes of our volunteers.
Our rescue is unique in that we offer supportive services, such as education and training, to owners considering relinquishing their pet in an effort to try to keep the dog in their home whenever possible. We also educate and offer placement assistance to owners attempting to rehome their pets through social media sites, which can often be risky for the pets as well as the owners.
Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue needs foster parents as well as trainers, groomers, fundraisers and transporters. We also need people to help with the data base, websites and adoption activities. If you have a passion for helping needy animals and can spare a few hours each week, we would love to talk to you!!

About...
We come from all walks of life in Nebraska: Democrats, Republicans, and independents; teachers, lawyers, scientists, professors, information technologists, retirees, students, faith leaders, stay-at-home parents. We are Nebraskans concerned about gun violence in our state and country. We think we can do better, and we advocate for ways to reduce gun violence. We do not oppose gun ownership–in fact, many of us own guns. However, we think Nebraska and the U.S. can do a better job of ensuring that guns stay out of the hands of irresponsible people, and that we can implement sensible ways to mitigate gun violence through universal background checks, safe storage, rigorous training requirements for carrying guns in public, and keeping guns out of certain areas of our lives.

Creating a modern and robust democracy for all Nebraskans
Nebraskans for Civic Reform (NCR) works to create a more modern and robust democracy for all Nebraskans.
We are a group of dedicated and politically diverse young Nebraskans who are committed to strengthening our democracy through youth civic leadership programs, civic health initiatives, and ensuring our elections are non-partisan, accessible, and modern.
NCR achieves this by engaging our youth in our community and building leadership skills through service learning and student driven experiential learning. Our civic health programs strengthens social connectedness, confidence in institutions, community engagement and political involvement in communities across the state in a data based approach created by the first ever Nebraska Civic Health Index and through the Civic Health Partnership, all managed by NCR. Finally, once people are engaged in their democracy, we protect voting rights through non-partisan litigation, advocacy, election observation, research, and policy work.
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.
To accomplish this our three primary program areas are:
-
-
- K-12 civic engagement and service learning programs in urban and rural schools.
- Civic health initiatives across the state in both rural and urban communities.
- Non-partisan voting rights protection and Nebraska accessible elections policy and research
-
History: Nebraskans for Civic Reform was founded in 2008 by our executive director, Adam Morfeld while an undergraduate at the University of Nebraska Lincoln along with a group of politically diverse undergraduates and law students. Since then we have moved out of Adam’s dorm (thankfully) and grown to a staff of 60 full- and part-time staff based in Lincoln and Omaha.
About...
We all want to feel nurtured, connected and safe. That’s true in personal relationships and relationships with professionals like myself. As a psychotherapist I strive to provide a space where you can feel understood, supported and secure as you discover your strengths and work through the challenges you’re faced with.
Therapy Approaches I Use in My Practice
The approaches to therapy I offer draw on current research in human attachment and neurobiology. Here are the primary forms of therapy I use:
EMDR Therapy in Omaha
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an innovative and well-researched approach that triggers the brain’s natural tendency to heal through sensory stimulation such as eye movements. The process addresses negative beliefs and replaces them with more realistic truths. It can resolve past issues such as trauma, relieve present symptoms such as anxiety, and provide skills that help clients toward a positive future.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is an approach that draws on cognitive behavioral psychology and meditative practices such as mindfulness, (i.e., one’s ability to relate to thoughts, emotions and experiences in an objective, accepting way). ACT promotes a client’s freedom to take action that are consistent with one’s values.
Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples in Omaha
Couples have relationship problems when they experience emotional disconnection, which can lead to negative cycles of criticism and anger, among other emotions and reactions. The aim of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is to is to help couples overcome negative cycles, re-establish connection, and strengthen emotional bonds.
Your Success is My Success
I utilize something called Feedback Informed Treatment (FIT), in which I routinely monitor your progress and also monitor how effectively our client-therapist relationship is helping you. To do this I ask clients to complete very brief and simple questionnaires that helps us know whether we are on target with your therapy goals or whether we need to make some course corrections. FIT has been shown to increase results in therapy dramatically.
