The National Weather Service issued a Winter Storm Warning for Sunday through Monday with a forecast of more than six inches of snow. Indianapolis officials outlined preparations and plans to address the inclement weather.

Community members gathered for the Homeless Persons Memorial Day to honor 101 people who died living unhoused in Indianapolis. CHIP reported the number of homeless people increased since pre-pandemic years, to a point-in-time count of 1,701.

For some unhoused people, going without a phone for days, weeks or months is common. With studies showing that homeless people have higher mortality rates, the cell phone is a necessity often inaccessible to those that need it most.
