INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) The Indianapolis Urban League on Thursday will begin serving as a COVID-19 vaccination location.
It’s part of a plan to make the vaccine more accessible in minority communities.
It was just decided Monday to make the Indianapolis Urban league a vaccination location. Organizers said while there are multiple places to get the vaccine, for some of the people who live in the center of the city or downtown, accessibility is still very much a problem.
The world is moving forward in the fight against COVID-19. With multiple vaccinations available, distribution spots are being set up around the country and in Indiana.

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) Could major changes be coming for Indiana law enforcement officers? A committee of state lawmakers Tuesday took a big step forward.
The panel of lawmakers advanced a proposal to create guidelines to help police agencies in hiring and training and to create other measures to increase trust from the public.
“It’s historic,” said state Rep. Greg Steuerwald, a Republican from Avon, who spent the past six months conversing with various law-enforcement agencies before writing
House Bill 1006. It would require a state law-enforcement training board to establish mandatory de-escalation training guidelines.
“They said ‘Listen. We have 99.9% wonderful, great people and we do not want the 0.1% who do not act accordingly, to cause us issues. So, let’s deal with that. ”
