He and his fiancee were working to support their 4 children, but continually ending up in low wage jobs. Teron's case manager referred him to BY Construction, where he received industry certifications and secured a job earning $26/hour. He and his fiancee are now working to purchase their very own home for their family! Support Our New Facility Fund After 10 years in the Martindale-Brightwood neighborhood, we have outgrown our office space. We are working to lease a new office, but need your support. Please make a tax-deductible gift to our New Facility Fund help us raise $110,000 and move to a new space that would dramatically increase the size and number of programs we can offer our clients. Recovery Works Update In December PACE became the administrator of the State's Recovery Works program, connecting individuals leaving incarceration who struggle with substance use disorder with recovery programming. Since launching Phase I in January, we have successfully enrolled 545 clients. We are proud to play a part in this statewide effort to support reentry and recovery.

Through our partnership with EmployIndy and Conexus Indiana/Catapult, PACE was recently able to host our first full cohort of YES clients in Advanced Manufacturing training. The paid training takes place over several weeks, and includes classroom studies, hands-on education, and work experience with a partner employer.
