Every summer the staff at Disability Rights Nebraska (disabilityrightsnebraska.org) consult the strategic plan and set about developing outlines for their advocacy work for the next fiscal year. These outlines become “proposed objectives.” The public is invited to comment on the proposed objectives with the goal of making sure the work is addressing the needs of the community.
The public comment period begins on June 17 with options to comment online through the Disability Rights Nebraska website disabilityrightsnebraska.org and through their Facebook page facebook.com/DisabilityRightsNebraska.
Members of the public are also invited to attend the Annual Public Meeting of the Disability Rights Nebraska Board of Directors on Saturday, June 15 at Holthus Convention Center, York, Rooms J & K. Those attending in person will have the opportunity to share comment on the proposed objectives with the Board from 11:00 a.m. to Noon.
