What We Do
Who We Are
One Omaha empowers people where they live with education, training, and engagement to develop thriving neighborhoods. We value inclusive participation in the growth of our communities and are passionate about enhancing the quality of life in our city.
Who We Serve
Residents have tremendous potential to take collective action to create solutions for common problems. Our work focuses on neighborhood and community-led groups to address lack of capacity and help them gain greater control of their own future development.
What Sets Us Apart
One Omaha is the only nonprofit serving all neighborhoods throughout the city of Omaha in addition to community-led groups. Using an asset-based community development model for our place-based initiatives, we focus on the strengths and assets of a neighborhood/group rather than its deficits and problems. By offering tangible resources to keep residents informed and connected to their community, we equip them to influence decisions that impact their lives.
