What JobSource does

JobSource, Inc. is a private nonprofit Community Action Agency founded in 1983 and headquartered at 3530 Mounds Road in Anderson, Indiana. It operates as an Indiana-designated Community Action Agency under the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority (IHCDA), delivering education, tutoring, talent development, and household support services to low-income families across Madison, Grant, Howard, and Tipton counties in central Indiana. The organization structures its work around a two-generation household model intended to disrupt cycles of inherited poverty, with programs targeting every member of the household regardless of age.

JobSource delivers three core programs: Heartland Scholar House, which provides guidance and resources so parents can complete a college or workforce training program of their choosing; the STAR Tutoring Program, which provides free, one-on-one after-school academic support to Madison County K-12 students in partnership with local schools; and Home Weatherization, a congressionally mandated energy-efficiency program that reduces heating costs and energy consumption for eligible low-income households. Service delivery is conducted directly to residents via phone, email, online applications, and in-person engagement at the Anderson headquarters, with no commercial pricing model and no proprietary technology platform.

The organization's revenue model is grant- and donation-based rather than commercial. Funding flows from multiple federal, state, and local granting organizations (including the Low Income Weatherization Program), supplemented by individual donations and corporate sponsorships. JobSource does not disclose program costs publicly because service eligibility is income-based. The organization operates with a 51-100 employee headcount and is governed by a board of directors under Executive Director Doug Eckerty. It is not a technology company and has no AI/ML capabilities, no proprietary software products, and no commercial customer base; its competitive position rests on its regulatory designation, 40-year operating history, and embedded community partnerships rather than technology differentiation.
