What does genesis do?
STEM
We develop programs in areas such as engineering, agriculture, health science and technology, which allow Indiana’s next generation of innovators to flourish.
real-world applications
We support events that encourage students to apply curious minds and critical-thinking skills to real-world opportunities.
Connection to the Community
We generate meaningful dialogue and collaboration between students and employers to prepare students for a globally dynamic marketplace.
The Pathways to Success
Genesis is a guide to new beginnings, a nudge in the right direction, and an acceleration towards one’s goals.
Mission:
To be a perpetual resource to support, expand, and enhance educational and economic opportunities for local communities.
State of Broadband Study
Southeastern Indiana Regional Planning Commission and Purdue University’s Center for Regional Development recently partnered to develop a State of Broadband report (PDF), which was released in April 2019. The study uses 2017 and 2018 data from the Federal Communications Commission, Microsoft, and the American Community Survey to assess connectivity here in Southeastern Indiana.
“Broadband infrastructure, without a doubt, is the equivalent of a railroad line or a four-lane interstate highway in this century. Not having adequate broadband infrastructure and an effective digital inclusion strategy will further disadvantage communities in this 21st century global economy,” the report states.
Counties in the SIRPC region include Dearborn, Decatur, Franklin, Jefferson, Jennings, Ohio, Ripley, Shelby and Switzerland.
