Office of Lawrence Township Trustee Steve Talley

I really enjoyed coming back to Zion Hope Baptist Church to attend the annual “Women of Virtue - She Is” annual event. I was also thankful to Pastor McGee and his team for welcoming and allowing us to provide information to all that attended this great event about the services our office provides.

We had an excellent time connecting with constituents at Representative John Bartlett’s House District 95 Town Hall! It was a great evening hearing about many issues impacting our State, City and Township while running into friends, new and old!

Lawrence Township Trustee Steve Talley is excited to announce the partnership between State Senator La Keisha Jackson, who is the Executive Director of Pathway Resource Center, Inc. and The Office of Lawrence Township Trustee to provide Lawrence Township residents free rides from their home to:

Sharing Place Food Pantry 6501 Sunnyside Road, Indianapolis, IN 46236 and the Community Cupboard of Lawrence at 7101 Pendleton Pike, Indianapolis, IN 46226

Both Senator Jackson and I recognize that many of our residents are unable to access nutritious food because of not being able to access the limited public transportation system in Lawrence Township.

It is always amazing to be at the Indianapolis Public Library Fall Festival, presented by the Indianapolis Public Library Foundation alongside the J Steve and Donna D Talley Fund. Congratulations to all of the talented students who win the “Slammin’ Rhymes Challenge XIX.”

It was also very inspirational to hear from the “The Three Doctors” who were the speakers. They made promises while they were young men that they would all become doctors to give back. Nearly 40 years later, they’ve achieved their dreams, and it was a great lesson for all the kids in the room about what you can accomplish when you work hard.

Very grateful to Harrison Hill Elementary School for hosting their Annual Fall Health Fair for families to get information and to stay healthy! The team at Harrison Hill does an amazing job engaging with the families in our community by connecting them to helpful resources.

A really nice event this weekend at Lawrence Community Park, hosted by the City of Lawrence, Indiana - Government, to get kids ready for back-to-school with backpacks and other supplies! We were happy to be there to pass out rulers and books for them, in addition to school clothes voucher information for families.

This weekend, it was really nice to join New Fellowship Family Church for their annual Community Day! As always, we really enjoyed spending time with Lawrence Township residents to provide information about programs like our school clothes vouchers.

Last weekend, we were really happy to join Mt. Carmel Baptist Church for their Annual Emancipated A Juneteenth Celebration Gospel Fest! We appreciate everyone who came out to celebrate the day, and it was great to connect with many Lawrence Township residents.

We were really honored to welcome Billie Breaux, a former employee, back to our office to wish her well in her upcoming move to Detroit and to also wish her a Happy Birthday yesterday!

Billie has dedicated her entire life to public service so it was very special to see the community come out and thank her for all that she has done. Billie, we hope you all have an excellent move and thank you for all you’ve done for Lawrence Township!

It was great to visit The Sharing Place Food Pantry today, located at 6501 Sunnyside Road at the Lawrence Education and Community Center. I really am grateful for the Foundation for Lutheran Child and Family Services, and their leaders including Sven and De’Aundre, and all their volunteers for all they do to help feed families in need in Lawrence Township. Our office is very proud to help financially support their amazing work!

It is always a joy to be at the (BRAG - Binford Redevelopment and Growth, Inc) Annual cleanup for Skiles Test Nature Park! As usual, I was happy to help manage the parking lot for the day! The highlight of the morning was running into my old friend Larry Riggle, the founder of BRAG. It was great to see Larry and the many volunteers who worked all morning to keep our area clean!

Really great to be back at Zion Hope Church this afternoon for their “Women of Virtue - She Is” event! Very grateful to Pastor McGee and his team for welcoming us and for hosting such a wonderful event for women in our community to connect and spread an uplifting message!
