(Audio) North Platte City Council Meeting, June 4th recap

Fort Cody Summer Music Series concert lineup

The Behavioral Health Education Center of Nebraska (BHECN) will be traveling across Nebraska&nbsp;this summer&nbsp;to discuss with providers the impact of $25.5 million in American Rescue&nbsp;Plan&nbsp;Act (ARPA) funds on behavioral health care in the state.

At the request of the Nebraska Legislature, BHECN distributed the funds in 2023 to address the state’s behavioral health workforce shortage and behavioral health issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic.&nbsp;

BHECN, housed at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC), used a comprehensive application and review process to allocate the funds to more than 100 projects around the state to help address key behavioral issues on various fronts.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.unmc.edu/bhecn/arpa/awardees.html" target="_blank">See a full list of BHECN-ARPA Awardees here</a>.

This summer’s trips will unite recipients through a series of statewide gatherings, where they can share project progress, explore avenues for additional support from BHECN, exchange best practices, and foster stronger networks.

“The BHECN-ARPA project presents a uniquely powerful opportunity to address enduring behavioral health workforce challenges, especially those compounded by the pandemic,” said Marley Doyle, MD, director of BHECN. “We eagerly anticipate engaging with Nebraska’s outstanding organizations in person, witnessing their groundbreaking efforts, which are poised to improve the lives of so many Nebraskans.”

Jessie Buche, director of the ARPA Awards Program, added, "BHECN is particularly enthusiastic about showcasing the remarkable achievements of BHECN-ARPA awardees in the inaugural year of their projects."

The BHECN-ARPA awardee gatherings will be held:

Tuesday, June 11&nbsp;– 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. CDT at the University of Nebraska&nbsp;at&nbsp;Kearney’s Ockinga Seminar Center.&nbsp;

Tuesday, June 18&nbsp;–&nbsp;9 a.m. to 1 p.m. MDT at Chadron State College&nbsp;in the student center’s Scottsbluff Room.

Tuesday, Aug. 6&nbsp;– 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. CDT at Wayne State College.&nbsp;﻿&nbsp;

Wednesday, Aug. 7&nbsp;– 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. CDT at UNMC.&nbsp;

Media are invited to attend the events. (Best time may be from 10:10-11:30 a.m.; a BHECN awardee will present and then awardees will meet to discuss successes and challenges.)

“Nebraska confronts numerous behavioral health workforce challenges, and our awardees are addressing those challenges head on,” Buche said. “We are excited to hear their insights and amplify their important work.”

By Western Nebraska Community College

SCOTTSBLUFF, Neb. -&nbsp;Recent Western Nebraska Community College graduate Jordon Underwood of Oshkosh was named a Distinguished Chapter Member by Phi Theta Kappa National Honor Society.

The awarded members are selected based on a student's embodiment of the Hallmarks of the Society through active participation in their chapter. It is awarded to students with exceptional leadership, scholarship service, and fellowship with their chapter and community. Only 30 students are recognized nationwide.

"It&nbsp;was a great honor I got the ability to receive a medallion for this award," Underwood said. "I was really thankful for friends, family, professors, and the PTK organization for this award."

In addition, he was also the recipient of the Board of Governors Award at the WNCC Student Award Ceremony in late April.

"PTK and WNCC have made a big difference in my life," Underwood said. "I got the ability to meet new people and develop friendships that will last forever."

Underwood received his associates degree in May and plans to continue his education next fall at Chadron State College to pursue a bachelor's degree in elementary education.

The event, hosted by NDOT, took place in Kearney at the Nebraska Safety Center showcasing the exceptional skills and expertise of snowplow operators from across the state.


The Snowplow Roadeo is an annual event in which local competitions are held in each of NDOT’s eight districts. The top two teams from each district then advance to the state competition, where they compete for the chance to represent Nebraska at the national level. This year, the national competition will be held in late Sept. in Loveland, Colo.

After a competitive display of talent and precision, the top two teams were announced, ready to take on the national stage. The winners of the 2024 Annual Snowplow Roadeo are Chad Shaul and Tyrel Yager, from District 8 in Valentine. These teams have demonstrated their exceptional skills, dedication to safety, and commitment to ensuring safe and efficient winter road maintenance.

The Snowplow Roadeo not only celebrates the expertise of snowplow operators but also highlights the importance of their role in keeping Nebraska's roadways safe during the winter months. These skilled professionals work tirelessly to clear snow and ice, ensuring the smooth flow of traffic and minimizing potential hazards.

"I want to congratulate the winners of this year's Snowplow Roadeo," said Vicki Kramer, Director of the Nebraska Department of Transportation. "This event provides opportunity to test skill and showcase the level of sophistication it takes to keep our roads safe and open to those who use our roadways to travel to work, school and home. I appreciate the seriousness and the competitiveness, while also having a little fun, that was shown among the NDOT teams. We are proud to have such talented individuals representing Nebraska at the national competition."

The national competition in Loveland, Colo., will bring together the top snowplow operators from across the country. Competitors will face a series of challenging tasks designed to test their skills in various winter road maintenance scenarios. The event provides an opportunity for operators to learn from each other, exchange best practices, and showcase their expertise on a national platform.
