Shaping Policy. Elevating Community Voices. Transforming Omaha.
Why Advocacy?
Urban design doesn’t stop at blueprints—it requires action. Advocacy at Spark ensures that community-driven design isn’t just an idea, but a reality reflected in policies and projects. We work alongside city leaders, state officials, and local residents to champion equitable development, sustainable urban growth, and accessible public spaces.
Advocacy takes time. It’s about persistence, partnerships, and people. From community meetings to policy proposals, we ensure that the voices of East Omaha residents shape the future of their neighborhoods.
How We Advocate
Urban Policy & Equity – Ensuring development reflects the needs of Omaha.
Community Engagement – Amplifying local voices in urban planning.
Surveys & Public Feedback – Gathering input to shape inclusive spaces.
Legislative & Planning Efforts – Supporting policies that enhance accessibility and equity.
