The Nebraska Warrior Writers program is designed to help veterans, active-duty military personnel, and their families or support partners express their thoughts and feelings in words. This program is sponsored by Humanities Nebraska, with assistance from the Nebraska Writing Project. Participants need only be interested in writing in any form - they do not need any previous writing experience to benefit from the workshops.
Throughout the Fall, there are multiple free workshops in both Omaha and Lincoln. There are both in-person and Zoom options.
