So happy about this partnership and the work Tom is doing to better our addiction counseling community! 🤝✨

We are excited to celebrate UNO Counseling faculty member Tom Maxson for his leadership in developing Nebraska’s updated Substance Use Evaluation Training in collaboration with the UNO Counseling Department and the Grace Abbott School of Social Work.

Beginning this fall, the training will serve as the statewide standard for newly registering providers conducting substance use evaluations, helping ensure high-quality, evidence-informed services for both adult and juvenile populations. Tom’s expertise and dedication to the counseling and addiction professions continue to make a meaningful impact across Nebraska.

Congratulations, Tom, on this outstanding accomplishment and thank you for your commitment to advancing the field! 👏🎉

📣 We Want to Hear From You!

To better understand opportunities and challenges related to strengthening the social work workforce in rural and frontier Nebraska, the Grace Abbott School of Social Work at the University of Nebraska at Omaha is hosting virtual focus groups as part of a statewide research study.

We have been grateful to hear from social workers across the state and are still actively welcoming participants. We are especially hoping to increase representation from western and central Nebraska. If you or someone you know serves one of the counties highlighted on the map below, we would love for you to join us.

Focus groups are informal, virtual, and take about one hour.
