On June 17 Project NETWORK, the product of a three-year federally-funded grant awarded to UNO’s Grace Abbott School of Social Work, presented its ground-breaking work at an international conference on “Youth Divide and Youth Inclusion” in Hong Kong.
Team members include Susan Feyen-Reay, project coordinator, Claire Rynearson, MSW/MPA student, Sara Preston, MSW/MPH student, and Dr. Peter Szto, project director.
The audience was intrigued with Nebraska’s efforts to advance social work education for at-risk youth in rural areas.
