A business incubator has opened on the far east side of Indianapolis, it's called P30 and they are providing hope in an area that has seen its share of crime and tragedy.
The facility has a vast variety of amenities:They hope to be able to rewrite the narrative."The reputation within Indianapolis of the far east side really being known for what it's known for. Crime, violence, and whatever else," Erin Parker said."This area used to be thriving back when factories and the workforce was a little different, but after people started outsourcing and doing what they did, they left," Parker said.
Others like Stacey Majors agreed."I thought it was pretty cool. Give a place where people can at least have a conversation. I think of meeting people, if everybody would have a conversation they'll find something in common and stop all the hate and everything. Just get along and live life." "The far east side they have a reputation. But at the end of the day, we want to make that a better reputation. A reputation that people are actually proud of," Alana Morgan said."We really are trying to make that change and get people to understand that it can be done," Morgan said.
P30 is attached to Volumod, a modular home builder that provides opportunities to people who have been released from jail to re-enter society.
