Indiana First: Southwest Indiana’s READI Program
The region was awarded $15 million from the state’s READI program, intended to accelerate projects that will enhance the area’s quality of life, and increase competitiveness for economic growth.
Indiana First is a region of tremendous assets. Recreation abounds from our rolling hills, meandering streams, navigable rivers, and forested lands to our theme parks and affordable and active communities that provide a high quality of life and diverse housing for current and future residents.
Our well-connected infrastructure and robust private investment support diverse industries and innovative institutions that ensure sustainable living, next- generation careers, and an entrepreneurial spirit that raises awareness of the State and attracts a multi-generational population to live, work, and play in our region.
