Convention center, national guard recruitment, Friendship Clubhouse | Indiana Newsdesk

Coming up on  Indiana Newsdesk:

Bloomington leaders have come up with a proposal to take over expansion and operation of the convention center from Monroe County. But, county commissioners call the city’s offer insufficient.

Lack of in-person events and record low unemployment have had a negative impact on U.S. military recruitment. The Indiana National Guard is also feeling the impact of lower numbers of recruits.

And we visit the Friendship Clubhouse in Vincennes, which has worked to improve the lives of those suffering from mental illness.
