This award sets us apart as one of only two communities in the nation to earn the coveted Certified Welcoming designation at a four-star level. What an achievement!! 🎉

This was a community effort involving hundreds of individuals, and dozens of nonprofit, city, and county partners.

Lincoln was recently designated a 4-Star Certified Welcoming community by Welcoming America! 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Check out our new video featuring a few local voices talking about why Lincoln is home for them. 😍
