INDIANAPOLIS — Leaders at Eskenazi Hospital say they are seeing a steady stream of gun violence victims walk into their hospitals.
It’s one of the reasons why they launched Prescription for Hope, to help victims long after they leave the hospital. “Prescription for Hope,” is a violence reduction program offered through Eskenazi. “We are making sure they have housing – job applicants – we are helping them through the court system with food insecurities,” program manager for Prescription for Hope, Kristin Abeel said.
The idea of the program is to connect patients who suffered a violent injury — shooting, stabbing or assault — with tools for a successful recovery. Since starting in 2009, the program has helped more than 1,000 people.In November of 2021, the 28-year-old and her dog were shot after an argument over a parking spot in the city of Indianapolis.“It was something that got completely out of hand. There were 30 plus rounds shot into my apartment that day,” Carter added.
