It takes a village to keep citizens informed, lawmakers accountable and the outcome of civic meetings available to all. That’s why we have Indy Documenters, people like you who we train and pay to attend public meetings and take notes about the decisions being made.

Indy is locked into funding hundreds of police positions it can’t fill

Nothing says summer like the farmers market.☀️🍓 I recently dropped in on a different kind of market — one that's run entirely by kids! At this market, kids make their own products, sell them and take home what they earn. Here's a look, via @mirrorindy.org: mirrorindy.org/kids-markets...
