Advocacy and Public Policy
Advocating for Older Adults & Aging Services in Nebraska
LeadingAge Nebraska provides members with a strong voice in front of the Unicameral, DHHS, Government Officials and other policy representatives.
For-profit and not-for-profit facilities are frequently impacted differently by laws and regulations, from tax exemption to reimbursement. Not-for-profits need and deserve representation and advocacy which focuses on their special needs and interests, and that’s what LeadingAge Nebraska does. We contract with Kent Rogert of Jensen Rogert Associates, Inc. to provide lobbying services on behalf of LeadingAge Nebraska and our membership.
