Military Family Relief Fund Assists Indiana Veterans

by Indiana State Representative Ryan Hatfield

I recently received the information below and wanted to ensure you had an opportunity to see and share it as well.

Indiana is proud to offer veterans and their dependents up to $2,500 in grants from the Indiana Military Family Relief Fund (MFRF). These grants can be used for basic needs such as housing, utilities, food, medical services, or car repairs.

The Department of Veterans Affairs also offers workforce, financial counseling, mental health, and legal resources.

As always, please do not hesitate to reach out to my office if you are in need of assistance.

0

Evansville, IN — Culinary Crossroads has announced Ivy Tech-Evansville will be serving as the “Presenting Sponsor” for the Oct. 26 initial dinner of the Culinary Crossroads-On The Road dinner series. 

In coming on board with the “On the Road” dinner, Ivy Tech Chancellor Daniela Vidal sees the event as an opportunity to begin to re-imagine what the Hospitality and Culinary programs at Ivy Tech could and should be, and to demonstrate the school’s ongoing commitment to the culinary community in Evansville and the surrounding communities in Southwest Indiana. 

 Chancellor Vidal will provide a brief overview of the school’s plans for delivering education, training, and support services to the culinary industry which has been forced to change drastically due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting changes in consumer behavior. 

 “We are thrilled with the timing of this event as it coincides quite well with our current planning activities for delivering our customized education, training and service products to the culinary community,” Vidal said.  “Re-imagining the programs is important for our community and I am looking forward to sharing an ‘appetizer’ of our plans at next Tuesday’s dinner.”

Culinary Crossroads spokesman Larry Dickerson, said “Having Ivy Tech involved in our initial dinner and ongoing activities in Evansville and the surrounding area of Southwest Indiana will provide a tremendous foundation for success.  We look forward to the ongoing collaborative efforts with Ivy Tech, chefs, restaurateurs, product and service providers, financial institutions, public officials and business owners, all of which have a vested interest in building and nurturing a vibrant culinary community.  

The dinner will feature three of Evansville’s top “Chef Ambassadors,” Charisa Perkins-Copper House, Jeremiah Galey-Amy’s On Franklin, and Lake Russell-Schymik’s Kitchen.  The Evansville dinner will also serve as the start of Culinary Crossroads’ ongoing monitoring, support and promotion of the Evansville culinary community with their stakeholders throughout the entire Hoosier State. 

 The dinner series is just one of Culinary Crossroad’s initiatives which serve to raise the awareness of the people, products, places, and services which help define Indiana’s culinary landscape and make the state the preferred destination to live, work and play.

Vincennes University Theatre Arts Program Is welcoming Back Live Audiences With “Clue: The Musical”

0
VINCENNES, Ind., October 20, 2021 – Seeing the light reflect off of someone’s glasses, hearing a gasp of air leave someone’s breath, always aware the audience is there but never seeing them fully, as the light blinds your view of them.
When performing on a stage, the nerves are certainly real. Trying to memorize the script and perform on stage can be stressful. According to Vincennes University Theater Arts major Styx Adams, it is all worth it.
“I have stage fright, and it can all be stressful at times, but it is completely worth it when you see the audience’s expressions or hear their laughter,” says Adams, who is from Gleeson, Indiana. “Knowing that you are bringing out these emotions in people, whether it’s anger, joy, sadness, or shock, it’s why I do theater. I’m always wanting to make someone’s day better.”
Productions were virtual last academic year. Actors and actresses didn’t perform in front of a live audience. It took a creative toll on performers as the crowd’s energy is key to performing on stage.
The exciting news is live audiences are returning to VU’s student productions.

Indiana State Police Partners With DEA For 21st Drug Take Back Day

0

On Saturday, October 23, 2021 the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is sponsoring the 21st nationwide “Prescription Drug Take Back” initiative.  The “Take Back” initiative seeks to prevent prescription drug abuse and theft through proper disposal of prescription drugs.

Collection sites will be set up nationwide for expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs which will be properly disposed of without threat to the environment.  This program is for liquid and pill medications.  Vaping pens without batteries and vaping cartridges will also be taken.  Needles, new or used, WILL NOT be accepted for disposal.  This service is free and anonymous with no questions asked.

This initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue.  Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs.  Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet.

In addition, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for disposing of unused medicines—flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash—pose both potential safety and health hazards.

Once again, the Indiana State Police is pleased to partner with the DEA, and as in the past, unwanted medications may be dropped off at any Indiana State Police Post, except the Toll Road Post.  The event will be on Saturday, October 23, 2021 between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.

To locate the State Police post closest to your home or business, click this link for Indiana State Police on the Map. To find other locations in Indiana or across the U.S. that are participating in the Drug Take Back initiative, click this link to the DEA.

The Drug Take Back events are the safe, popular and responsible way for the public to legally dispose of prescription drugs with no questions asked.
