The Nebraska Intertribal Coalition issues the following statement on the recent mistrial in the Terri McCauley case.

The Nebraska Intertribal Coalition represents the Ponca, Omaha, Santee Sioux, and Winnebago (Ho-Chunk) Nations. Our tribal nations are saddened to learn that a mistrial has been declared in the murder case of Terri McCauley.
Terri was a daughter, a mother, a sister, an aunt, and a Native woman whose life mattered deeply to her family and to all our communities. She was a member of the Omaha Tribe of Nebraska and a Ponca descendant, and her loss is felt across Indian Country.
Our ways teach us that every living being is a relative deserving of dignity. In our communities, women are held in the highest regard and must be protected. Our tribal nations will not forget her, nor will we rest until justice is served.
We thank law enforcement and the Woodbury County Attorney's Office for their continued work and encourage them to remain steadfast in the pursuit of justice for Terri.

Meet Community Health Worker Julie Flynn!

Hello! My name is Julie Flynn, and I have been a Community Health Worker for nearly three years. I am an enrolled Ponca member, a proud mother of four, and a grandmother of four.

I enjoy working for the Tribe because it gives me the opportunity to give back to my community, especially our Elders and our younger generations. I hope that through the work I do, I can help our youth learn who they are, understand where they come from, and stay connected to their culture and community.

Being there for our Elders is especially important to me. Not everyone has someone they can turn to or connect with. Whether I’m serving an Elder lunch, helping someone find housing, connecting them with resources, or helping them get to a doctor’s appointment, every interaction matters.

Everything is a connection, and I want to be one of those dots that helps connect our people to what they need.
