More Than a Game Unrivaled Watch Party

We're teaming up with SET the Bar for an Unrivaled Semifinals watch party. Enjoy some incredible women's basketball, be in community, and learn about the ACLU’s work for gender equality and how you can be part of it — including how to show up for trans youth right now. We won't be alone. Our gathering will be one of many where supporters of women's sports, trans rights, and gender equality across the country will gather to watch Unrivaled and show up for equality. Programming gets going at 5:30 P.M. CST. Join us when you can!

Justice Access Engagement Listening Session

Join us for a community conversation about the barriers people face in getting the legal assistance they need. We’ll discuss the challenges many Nebraskans encounter when trying to access legal services and through your feedback explore ways we can respond to these needs.

This event is co-hosted by the ACLU of Nebraska, the Movement in Omaha for Racial Equity (MORE), Nebraska Appleseed, Legal Aid of Nebraska, the Omaha and Lincoln NAACP branches, the Nebraska State Bar Association, and the Nebraska State Bar's Volunteer Lawyers Project.
