The Nebraska Commission on Latin Americans is pleased to introduce its new commissioner, Adi Dobbins-Fernández, who will play a crucial role in representing and advocating for the Latino community in the North Platte area.

Born on March 6, 1992, in Michoacán, Mexico, Adi Dobbins-Fernández came to the United States at the age of 3, along with her parents and two of her brothers. During her childhood, she resided in the West Coast states until the age of 12, at which time her family decided to move to Nebraska. Adi, a DACA recipient, obtained a driver’s license and work permit to contribute to society actively.
With a residency that spans towns like Rock, Lincoln, and her current home in North Platte, Adi considers the latter her hometown. Her commitment to the Latino community is highlighted through her role as founder and executive director of the nonprofit Las Mañanitas.

Las Mañanitas, under the direction of Adi Dobbins-Fernández, focuses on educating, redirecting, training, and advocating for at-risk youth and the growing Hispanic population in North Platte and Lincoln County, Nebraska. Her tireless dedication to improving the lives of those who need it most has cemented her position as an influential leader in the community.
