Bill > SR0019

This resolution, a formal expression of sentiment from the Indiana Senate, memorializes Alicia June Barnett Collins, who passed away at the age of 54 after a life dedicated to serving the Far Eastside of Indianapolis. The resolution highlights her significant contributions to philanthropy, grassroots organizing, crime prevention, and community development over a thirty-year career, including her work with the Annie E. Casey Foundation and the Central Indiana Community Foundation, where she became Director of Community Leadership. It also acknowledges her entrepreneurial spirit in founding 3-R Consulting, LLC, and her involvement in political campaigns for President Barack Obama and his advocacy group, Organizing for Action (OFA). The Senate recognizes that her passion for public service and her efforts to instill this in her daughter, Blake, have made the Far Eastside and Indiana Senate District 34 better places, and expresses that she will be fondly remembered by her family, friends, colleagues, and community. Copies of this resolution will be sent to her husband, Tom Collins, and her children, Trajan S. Collins and Blake Hall.
