Groups of students chose one policy topic/theme to prepare as audio/visual report which Coalition for a Strong Nebraska can use for educational purposes. The students interviewed a participating nonprofit about the policy issue, conducted research on the policy and topic, wrote a script, and created a 2 minute pod cast or video. UNO students created a space for the podcast to be published. Videos were approved and posted to the CFASN YouTube page.
