Today we’re joined by someone doing quiet, powerful work behind the scenes to support families when they need it most. Sheila Decker is the In-Home Family Services Manager at Epworth Family Services, where she leads a dedicated team working with families referred through Nebraska DHHS. These are families facing real challenges — often tied to safety, stability, or risk of out-of-home placement. Sheila and her team provide tailored, trauma-informed support, helping parents strengthen their skills, rebuild trust, and access the resources they need to keep their families together. It’s compassionate, complex work — and it’s making a measurable difference across Nebraska.
