about the center for public affairs research.
The Center for Public Affairs Research is a research and community outreach unit of the UNO College of Public Affairs and Community Service. Survey research support is a key component of CPAR's mission. The largest project this year has been to develop the next installment of the Omaha Conditions Survey providing longitudinal information about citizens on a range of issues. This year will make the first time that the Survey will ask question specifically of concern to Latino/Latina residents. CPAR is also the lead agency for the Nebraska State Data Center Program. This program is a cooperative program between the U.S. Census Bureau and individual states. This relationship has resulted in CPAR taking an active role in analyzing and disseminating information from the 2000 Census.
Congratulations to CPAR for being awarded the 2006 Chancellor's Strategic Planning Award for Community Engagement. more > >
