Nebraska Consortium of Tribal, State, and Federal meetings to be rescheduled

The March 2020 Nebraska court engagement sessions with Native American community members are postponed until further notice.

The sessions were originally scheduled on March 23, 2020, in Scottsbluff and March 24, 2020, in Rushville. The decision to postpone these community events is made in cooperation with non-essential travel limitations due to the possible spread of COVID-19.

About the sessions:

The Nebraska Consortium of Tribal, State, and Federal Courts has invited Native American communities to share their thoughts and concerns about the court system in Nebraska at two Western Nebraska public engagement sessions (dates to be rescheduled).

Participants will be given the opportunity to share their experiences and perceptions of the Tribal, State, and Federal courts. The information gathered through the discussion sessions will help to inform the future work of the Consortium in facilitating communication and collaboration between court systems. The discussion sessions are promoted in partnership with the Tribes and include outreach to community leaders.

November 2019 sessions were held in Omaha, Niobrara, Macy, and Winnebago.
