New Manufacturing Partnerships to Employ Survivors

Hope Center Indy continues its efforts to offer critical employment and empowerment opportunities to survivors of human trafficking. Last year, the center announced a partnership with Jake Flagle and the team at 316 Product Development. This collaboration sparked the launch of 316 Contract Manufacturing, a program tailored to overcome the significant challenges survivors face when entering or re-entering the workforce.


This innovative program has garnered much attention. Two companies have already selected 316 Contract Manufacturing for their product development. Among the new partnerships, the collaboration with Compact Medical to manufacture the Butterfly Bag Valve Mask (butterflyBVM) is particularly exciting. This innovative medical device, noted for its potential to revolutionize CPR practices and save more lives, aligns perfectly with Hope Center's mission of imparting hope and healing to every heart.


Early this year, Compact Medical published a five-minute video showcasing the butterflyBVM. Towards the end of the video, Hope Center Indy is mentioned as the chosen manufacturing partner.




This month, the butterflyBVM manufacturing officially launched! Over 100 BVMs have come off the line and are now in final testing.





Hope Center Indy takes great pride in this new program—not just for its contribution to the organization's growth but also for the significant positive impact it will have on many survivors. Through the survivors' involvement in this program, they will be able to contribute to the creation of life-saving devices and experience empowerment through meaningful, long-term employment.


"When we started the company, our mission was about improving CPR to save lives. We’re excited because now we have the opportunity to help save lives in a different way by the selection of our contract manufacturing partner, Hope Center Indy.”
