South Central Indiana Community Resources Youth Services Bureau, Safe Place, Community Corrections, Community Service, ADOP We operate in two counties in Southern Indiana, Crawford and Orange.

SCICR’S vision is as a leader in community safety where we are advocates for change in both individual lives and organizational systems. A state-recognized pioneer in community-based justice, SCICR, previously known as PACT, was established over 40 years ago to provide support and programing to those being released from Indiana State Prison in Michigan City, IN. Today, SCICR offers a comprehensive

array of innovative, cost-effective, best practice services for prevention, correction, and healing. Our programs are diverse and dependent on local needs.

Thank you Orange County Community Foundation, Inc. for your support of our summer program.

The Orange County Community Foundation Inc. is proud to award a $1,000 grant to South Central Indiana Community Resources in support of its Summer Program.

The program serves at-risk students in grades 7-12 who are experiencing challenges related to behavior, attendance, academic performance, and social-emotional well-being. Through the summer program, students have the opportunity to stay engaged, build positive relationships, develop important skills, and receive support during a time when continued connection can make a meaningful difference.

We are proud to support South Central Indiana Community Resources and their commitment to helping local students overcome challenges and build a stronger foundation for success. Congratulations on this important work!

When a young person enters a Safe Place site seeking immediate help and safety, the process is simple:

• The young person informs one of the trained staff member they’re looking for help through Safe Place
• The young person is taken to a secure area, while the staff member contacts the local licensed Safe Place entity.
• A representative will arrive to meet with the youth and discuss/provide available resources.

Safe Place is designed to be accessible, responsive, and centered on providing immediate help and safety to young people.
