One of the pillars of the Nebraska Council on Economic Education is our steadfast advocacy of Economic and Personal Finance Education. We are those people who will talk your ear off about economics at a party even if you don't ask us too and if we hear you say budgeting it is basically a bat signal for us to come talk to you!
Our amazing Omaha Center Director, Jamie Wagner, was just recently on KIOS to talk about NCEE and Financial Literacy! Check it out!
