Nancy Cotterill co-founded 2nd Chance Indiana (as UNITE INDY) in late 2016. She was editor and later publisher of Indianapolis Business Journal, and then created a not-for-profit online news outlet for the four million wheelchair users in the U.S. As an award-winning journalist, Nancy uses her talents to promote efforts to fight the causes of overall poverty throughout our area while working to spread the specific message that second chance employment is lowering recidivism, changing lives, and raising families out of poverty.

With increasing gun violence all over the country, law enforcement has begun to require parents to do their jobs, instead of leaving everything up to the police. Indiana's Child Gun Laws are pretty clear. Parents of child shooters here will find that Indiana is not a lenient state for them.


Our Mission

Our mission is to reduce recidivism and rebuild lives through the dignity of work.
