Maybe it’s the wide open spaces, or our growing and youthful spirit. Maybe it’s the priority we place on giving our residents and visitors a wide variety of cultural experiences. Or the focus we give to educating our children and supporting our businesses. Maybe it’s the strong sense of community, or the spiritual base we have available. Or maybe it is a combination of all of the above.

Whatever it is to you, find your place in

NORFOLK, NEBRASKA.

  • Through the use of the various multimedia resources and friendly staff, Norfolk Now affords potential community members the opportunity to gain valuable insight into life in the Norfolk area before they arrive in the community.

    Michael Hart

  • The Norfolk Now program is a mutually beneficial venture for businesses, students, and young professionals. It’s a great tool that area businesses can use for talent attracting, to get their name out there, and show the community what they have to offer.

    Gunnar Qualset
    HR, Premier Companies
  • Norfolk Now is a great way to showcase what is happening in our community, not only for new people moving to town, but also for ourselves.  It has been a great addition to our community.

    Jarad Faltys

  • The CONNECT group, an off-shoot of Norfolk Now, allows our teammates and recruits from around the country a way to meet and interact with other young professionals in town, helping to make their transition to Norfolk successful.  I’m thankful Norfolk has a strong Chamber, with Great Staff and innovative ideas.

    Cindy Morrow

  • Norfolk Now works with employers to help them understand that they must reconsider their work models and people practices, and develop a robust workforce strategy that in a sense manufactures the talent they need to execute their long-term business strategy.

    Mark Zimmerer
    Former CEO & President, Norfolk Area Chamber
  • All across the state you will hear that workforce is the number one thing holding employers back from expanding and growing in our communities. We have to be proactive in our approach to not only recruit the workforce our industries need, but also find ways to better retain the people they already have. That is why it is vitally important to have initiatives like Norfolk Now working to help address the workforce challenge.

    Candace Bossard
    Economic Development Coordinator
  • CONNECT is a very innovative approach to connecting and engaging young professionals in our community.  In my opinion, this initiative, within our Norfolk Now program, has the potential to become a national model for progressive communities to “actively” engage this emerging population of our leaders.

    Eric Johnson
    Associate Vice President, Center for Enterprise
  • The work done through the Norfolk Now program is a great example of Norfolk’s efforts to address our current workforce shortage.  The steps that have been taken toward improving the Norfolk community is a result of the commitment and collaboration of everyone involved.

    Jake Luhr

  • When I was in the process of hiring a young talented broadcaster from out of state, and the Norfolk Now website made all the difference in the world.

    Mike Flood

  • Norfolk Now is an important resource for the future of Norfolk and the surrounding areas. Anyone who is looking to locate to a new area or wanting to return back can get info about the Norfolk area’s workforce and also what the community has to offer.

    Cathy Thierolf
    Norfolk Area Resident
  • Norfolk Now has been extremely helpful to our company for recruiting new talent. When non-resident applicants ask about our community, we direct them to Norfolk Now. It is truly a great source of information.

    Stephanie Hack

  • Norfolk Now is a groundbreaking, multi-faceted effort to not only retain and attract talent, but to connect individuals to each other and to their community.  The program is having great success building a Norfolk brand, based on our unique identity and sense of place, that is fresh, vibrant, and progressive.  It’s a tremendous community asset.

  • Norfolk Now has made it possible for us to promote all of the wonderful things we have going on in the Norfolk area. The initiative serves as a platform to share information about the amenities, services, and companies that make our area a great place to live and visit. We have a lot to offer and this is the perfect outlet to help us promote those opportunities to the world.

    Candice Alder
    Economic Development Coordinator, City of Norfolk
  • Norfolk Now and CONNECT are programs that are working and are vital to the growth of our community.  For years I have sat in business groups and Chamber meetings and we have discussed the importance of revitalizing our community with the next generation of business leaders and workers and I am very pleased to see our efforts coming to fruition through these initiatives.

    Steve McNally
    Vice President, One Office Solutions
  • As someone who grew up in this community, moved away after high school and returned with a family, it feels good knowing there are resources available like those found at Norfolk Now.  The program welcomes new individuals and families who have moved or are thinking about moving to our community by showcasing the great things Norfolk has to offer.
