Fountain Square Homeless Encampment Will Close, Indiana Housing Wage Gap Remains Large, Bubba Wallace Wins Brickyard 400, IU Indianapolis ASL Program Cut Due to State Budget Policy

A Fountain Square encampment for people experiencing homelessness will close next month. There is still a large gap between what it takes to afford an average two-bedroom apartment in Indiana and the typical Hoosier renter’s wage. Bubba Wallace became the first Black driver to win a major race on Indianapolis Motor Speedway’s 2.5-mile oval at the Brickyard 400 this weekend. The only American Sign Language interpreting program at a public university in Indiana will be cut as a result of a new policy in the state budget.
