We’d love to think we’re doing everything right at ONE Omaha, meeting all your neighborhood needs and exceeding your expectations in many cases.
In reality, we know there are things we can improve on as we strive to make Omaha the best city for neighborhoods in the country. So we need your help.

The name and focus have changed, but the concept is the same – gathering folks together and giving them the tools they need to make their neighborhoods better places. Our annual IN the Neighborhood Conference is now Omaha NeighborFest: Activating People, Places and Spaces. The event, set for Sunday, Sept. 16, is being designed to inspire community development and activate places. We want attendees to leave with practical ideas on how to bring their neighbors together to create vibrant places to live, work and play.
Want to be a part of making it happen? We’re looking for folks to join our five planning committees:
- Logistics
- Outreach
- Program
- Finance
- Volunteer
Got a skill and an interest in one of these areas? Please fill out this form. The deadline is Monday, April 30.
With your help, we can make this the best neighborhood gathering ever! If you have questions I haven’t answered here, please contact me at annabelle.oneomaha@gmail.com. Thanks for considering it!
