The Center for Public Affairs Research collaboratively produces and disseminates high-quality public scholarship about topics that impact the lives of Nebraskans. Ongoing projects from CPAR, include policy analyses for the Planning Committee of the Nebraska State Legislature, the Nebraska Rural Transit Project, governing.unomaha.edu, and designation by the U.S. Census Bureau as a statewide liaison for disseminating a range of data products. CPAR hosts an annual professional development data series, CPAR Presents: A Data and Research Series for Community Impact, that is for anyone who uses — or wants to use — data to understand and affect change in our communities. View our recent projects, publications, and presentations.
