-----------------------------------
Congratulations! We have passed our first goal of *250 people trained and as of today, are quickly reaching the next goal of *500 people trained.
We hope every office/location has an opportunity to schedule a training during the H.O.P.E. Challenge. Be sure to get your trainings scheduled as soon as possible. This gives Nebraska Citizen Corps time to line up instructors and create the online registration.

Contact Josh Yox at josh.yox@nebraska.gov to schedule Stop the Bleed, CPR/AED/First Aid, and You Are the Help Until Help Arrives. Josh can also help facilitate trainings for Disaster Psychological First Aid. Contact Soni Cochran, scochran2@unl.edu, if you would like a flyer created for your office(s) to promote the training(s) you schedule.
