    Eviction trends in Marion County (2010-2016)
    (Center for Research on Inclusion and Social Policy at IU, 2019-05) Merritt, Breanca; Stringham-Marquis, Kelsie; Camacho-Reyes, Karla; Gibson, Krystal
    Indianapolis ranks 14th in eviction rates among large U.S. cities for which data is available. An eviction is when a tenant is removed from a landlord’s property, either through the court system (formal) or outside of the court system (informal). Evictions and forced relocation can lead to housing instability and homelessness for families and individuals, as well as a loss of community resources, such as neighborhood connections and transportation. Indiana has several state laws and local ordinances governing evictions and landlord-tenant relationships. However, Indiana remains one of eight states that does not protect tenants against landlord retaliation. Indiana evictions occur at the township level, adding another layer of jurisdiction for this process. Given the complexity and implications of the eviction process, this report uses research conducted in partnership with the Coalition for Homelessness and Intervention and Prevention (CHIP) to examine what eviction-related trends exist in Marion County.

    Racial equity in school policing brief: a review of Indianapolis Public Schools Police Department
    (Center for Research on Inclusion & Social Policy, 2021-09) Lawrence, Roxy; Gibson, Krystal
    Disparities in educational outcomes and opportunities persist for students of color throughout the United States. On every measure of educational achievement and attainment, race continues to be a prominent factor in widening the opportunity gap within the student population. Black and Hispanic/Latinx students consistently represent a disproportionately high number of discipline incidents, which can significantly impact a student’s future. Given the national and local focus on police reform, Indianapolis Public Schools partnered with CRISP to identify best practices for achieving racial equity in school policing. This study assesses existing IPS PD practices, policies, and procedures and how they align with racially equitable evidence-based practices.
