As the year comes to a close, the OpenSky team wanted to take a moment to offer our heartfelt thanks to an outgoing member of our Board of Directors who has made a profound contribution to our organization.

Miguel Estevez will conclude his tenure on our Board of Directors when the calendar flips at the end of the month. He joined the board in 2020 and in the time since, Miguel has been an incredible partner in our work.

A bilingual mental health therapist originally from Grand Island, Miguel launched Estevez Archie Therapy earlier this year to serve a growing need in our state, which faces a shortage of bilingual mental health specialists. Miguel also teaches classes at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, where he earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees.

Miguel has been an outstanding board member, partner and friend, and in a season of reflection and gratitude, we wanted to take this opportunity to thank him publicly for all he has done and to wish him well. OpenSky and our state are better because of Miguel.

One way to show your appreciation to Miguel would be to make a tax-deductible online donation to OpenSky. Aside from honoring his incredible contributions, your donation also would help us expand our role to help forge more policies that benefit all Nebraskans!
