Before the State House event, we will be hosting a commemorative Wreath Placing Ceremony at the Indiana War Memorial: Soldiers and Sailors Monument, alongside the Iota Lambda Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. This will take place on Wednesday, January 9th, from 6-7 PM.

Then, on Monday, January 21, 2019, we continue our time-honored tradition of rolling up our sleeves to serve in the legacy of Dr. King during the 8th Annual Dr. King Day of Service. Register to participate here. 

All events are open to the public.

In celebration of this holiday, MLKIHC and ICRC have created a social media campaign titled "Continuing the Legacy," where we'll be featuring opportunities to get involved in day-of-service activities all over the state and providing information about how you can contribute to your community & continue his legacy.
