Through partnerships with organizations such as Nebraska 4-H and FFA, NIFA helps support programs that give young Nebraskans opportunities to build agricultural knowledge, leadership skills, and connections to the industry.

These experiences help prepare the next generation to keep Nebraska agriculture moving forward.

NIFA Executive Director Shannon Harner has been elected to the National Council of State Housing Agencies’ 2027 Board of Directors.

Selected by fellow state housing finance agency leaders from across the country, Shannon will help guide NCSHA’s work and bring Nebraska’s perspective into national conversations around housing policy, financing, and affordable housing.

“Nebraska’s housing challenges are real, and they don’t fit a one-size-fits-all policy. Being part of the NCSHA board means I can bring our state’s perspective directly into national conversations.”

Congratulations, Shannon!

Today is Careers in Construction Day, and NIFA is proud to recognize the students, educators, and skilled professionals building Nebraska’s future.

Through Teaching Nebraska Trades (TNT), NIFA has helped support construction-trades instruction at rural Nebraska community colleges, giving students opportunities to develop practical skills for careers in the industry.

Investing in the next generation of Nebraska’s workforce helps build more than careers. It helps strengthen the communities they call home.
