Children and families in Nebraska deserve support because every family deserves the tools and guidance to make life possible.
In neighborhoods across Nebraska, too many children are weighed down by challenges no child should have to face. When families are overwhelmed by complex struggles, the hope of a bright future can feel distant and out of reach.
We believe every child’s potential is unlocked when they are surrounded by safety, stability, and a true sense of belonging. These essentials lay the groundwork for growth, healing, and the ability to dream big.
Renewed Horizon exists to walk with families through their hardest seasons, replacing cycles of conflict with opportunities for peace and restoration. By supporting foster parents, caring for children, and strengthening families in crisis, we work to build hope where it has been lost—changing lives one child at a time.

Helping Young People Navigate Life’s Challenges
A new brief from the UNC School of Social Work’s Collaborative for Implementation Practice (CIP) explores how navigation services can guide youth and young adults through critical transitions into adulthood. It draws from research funded by the Annie E. Casey Foundation.
“CIP’s latest brief is a powerful reminder of the role youth navigation plays in connecting young people to the tools, resources and support they need,” said Thomasina Hiers, vice president of the Casey Foundation’s Center for Civic Sites and Community Change. “It also provides valuable guidance for nonprofits who are developing, refining and implementing youth navigation services across the United States.”
