Indy Achieves will provide scholarships, seeks to expand education to middle class

A new program will help people in Marion County further their education. The “Indy Achieves” initiative includes a scholarship that guarantees free tuition, books and fees for every Marion County 21st Century Scholar starting in 2019. The program is a result of a task force that was created last year to come up with recommendations on how to improve access to post-secondary educational opportunities.
