We gathered in downtown Sullivan to celebrate the construction of nine new single-family homes by developer J. Troy Stanton of Bricks & Gables inc.!

Along with the addition of housing, the Bricks and Gables Wabash Project improved curbing, sidewalks and storm drains on the block.

This Homes for the Future project is made possible through READI 1.0 funding with investments by the Wabash River Regional Development Authority and the Indiana Economic Development Corporation with support from Sullivan Mayor JD Wilson and Sullivan city leadership.

We celebrated Southard Homes LLC's new housing subdivision, Acres West, with a ribbon cutting ceremony. This project will provide 17 single-family homes in northern Terre Haute.

Theses three-bedroom, two-bathroom homes are a part of Thrive's Home for the Future Program and made possible through READI 1.0 funding.

We'd like to thank the Wabash River Regional Development Authority, the Indiana Economic Development Corporation, Brandon Sakbun in the Terre Haute Mayor's Office, the Vigo County Commissioners and the City and County councils for their support.

Never give out your Medicare number! It’s the season for scams, so stay alert.

SMPs are warning about an increased amount of scam calls about chipped Medicare cards. Medicare beneficiaries are reporting calls from "Medicare representatives" or "agents" that are calling to help them get new Medicare cards with a chip in it. These don't exist. This is a scam to steal the Medicare number so they can bill Medicare and get money.

Report these calls to the SMP. Be sure to review your Medicare statements for charges for braces. If you find something, say something.
