Description : The Boys Town Business Ethics project is a collaboration between UNO students and students from Boys Town High School. Students work together and discuss different ethical dilemmas presented in real world settings. The students will develop presentations with various ethical lessons. The purpose of this is to foster an understanding of ethical issues students may face in life, to empower students to create a presentation and develop public speaking skills, as well as to teach the lessons they learn over the semester to others. At the end of the semester Boys Town students and UNO students will get together and present their presentations to fourth and fifth grade students at Boys Town. The goal will be to strength the ethics lessons in their minds as well as to foster the ability to present and teach to others.

Description : Family Support Programs are community-based services that help to promote the well-being of children and families as well as increase the strength and stability of families. The services can be for youth and/or parents, and can occur within the home or at community locations. There are 4 sub-types of family support programs: Parenting Class, Advocacy, Social Workers, and Family Support. The sub-type for Family Support covers the programs that are in the community helping families with a variety of needs that may not fit into the other 3 categories. Family Support workers can help families work out communication issues, resolve school attendance problems, locate resources within the community to help the families meet the needs of all family members, or many other services that can be individualized for the youth and/or family’s needs.
