What is the main purpose of the Nebraska Funeral Service Association (NFSA)?

The Nebraska Funeral Service Association (NFSA) primarily serves as a professional organization for those working in the funeral service industry within Nebraska. Its main function is to represent the interests of funeral service professionals, providing resources, advocacy, and a platform for networking among its members.

This organization is focused on enhancing the quality and professionalism of funeral services by offering continuing education, promoting ethical practices, and keeping its members informed about changes in laws and regulations affecting the funeral industry.

While regulatory bodies oversee compliance and enforce laws, the NFSA’s role does not encompass these duties but rather supports its members through guidance and resources. It is not directly involved in the educational component for students pursuing funeral services, nor is it designed as a community support group for individuals dealing with grief and loss. Instead, the NFSA's mission centers on serving the professionals who provide these services.
