Board of Trustees
Who We Are
NSHS is a Nebraska state agency led by a director appointed by the Governor.
NSHS is also a membership organization. Members elect twelve trustees, four from each of the state’s three congressional districts, to staggered three-year terms, to advise the director. Three trustees are appointed by the Governor, one from each congressional district. Nominations are made by a board-appointed nominating committee. The Board of Trustees serves as an advisory board to the director and determines the various membership levels available to the public.
